We removed the 9.5 version using Windows programs uninstaller as well as using the Adobe cleanup utility for 9.x. Still installation is failing with the error " Invalid Target Cannot be installed on a server 27012 error code. Please help.

The message seems clear. Acrobat is not for use on a server.

We have an application installed on the server which uses it to read and process pdfs as part of batch processing.  the earlier 9.5 version used to work well enough but compliance dictates that we upgrade..Have we got the wrong product installer ?
