Adobe Connect 9 Installing and uninstalling itself

Report · Aug 01, 2016

Hello all,

I am unfamiliar with Adobe Connect; my users watch training webinars. We do not purchase the software, we only watch webinars not create them.

Quick question: Can Adobe Connect install and uninstall itself? I see on my network that it gets installed then normally uninstalled the next day. I know for sure that these users would be unable to uninstall the product themselves.

Adobe Connect does not require admin rights to install? I just want to make sure this isn't some hack or something.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

As a viewer or participant of Adobe Connect sessions, the only software required is Flash Player 11.2 or newer or the Adobe Connect Add-In (if Flash is not on the computer). When joining a meeting and you are prompted to install the Add-in because you don't have the Flash Player or are trying to interact with the room in a way the requires the Add-in (screen sharing), you should not need Admin rights to install it.

Can you verify what application you are seeing installed and uninstalled?
