Question

A Really Silent Install for Acobat Standard and Pro DC

I've just downloaded and built Adobe Acrobat Pro DC for my organization. I want to so a silent scripted install. I've done this for 100's of other applications but this keeps getting so convoluted I have no idea how to do it for Acrobat Pro and Standard. I use the customization wizard for reader and it works fine.

I simply want a silent install script I can use to push out to our customers without the app nagging them to log on. We don't use ANY cloud services. They just need to have the ability to edit PDF's.

I just tried using the customization wizard and it does not like the msi the CCPlaunch app built for me.

I just tried to install it manually. It said all installed, but it did not install anything. So, this manual install doesn't even work.Why is this so difficult?

TIA

Jim

Hi jamesc53031061‌,

Could you please tell me which msi you are using ?

The correct msi path  is -

i.e. C:\Users\ <user name>\Desktop\Acrobat DC new package\Build\Setup\APRO15.0\Adobe Acrobat .


Also you will have to select the "silent" option under Run installation label  in the Installation options category for silent installation.

Attaching a screenshot of the same.



With regard to your other query could you please tell me which Licence do you have for the software?

You would actually need the volume licence to grant the offline exception where it would not prompt the users to log on.

If you have the volume licence you can grant offline exception as shown in the screenshot.


Please let us know if you need any further assistance.


Regards

Sarojini

Thanks. I all of that with the wizard and put in the key I received from adobe licensing. Is it possible that they key I am using is the issue? It is a valid key.

It is called LIC SN.

The install is automated just fine. It's just when the end user launches it, it asks them to log in before they can use it. That is what I am trying to get rid of.

Also, I am installing from a directory called Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. I am not building this with the Creative Cloud any longer since we have no media stored there. We are downloading from https://licensing.adobe.com/. It comes as a .exe that we extract into the folder name as above. I am using AcroPro as the source to build my .mst file.

Thanks.


Hi jamesc53031061

Could you please let me know on which environment you trying to run this?

Also could you please let me know which file you are trying to run? Is it the Acropro.msi or setup.exe?

You will have to run the setup.exe file .
