Hi ,

We are getting below error while merging multiple word files into pdf, after providing local admin privileges to user, can any body help on this issue.

 

additional files will need to be installed to create pdf from this file . you must have administrator privileges to install these files. Please contact your local adminstrator.

I had this problem as well and I found a solution.

 

The problem actually lies in Microsoft Office, not Adobe. You need to run a repair tool for Microsoft Office.  This tool is already installed on your computer if you have Office. Here is the solution:

 

Go to: Settings > Apps > Click "Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise - en - us" > Modify > Allow changes > Quick Repair

 

Hope this helps!

The link takes us to the Google SERP.

I didn't understand where you are getting stuck.

I hope you re-put the link.
