Installing apps on an ReFS volume fails

[Luke Hester]

I have an SSD parititioned using ReFS in Windows 11 Enterprise.

If I change the default app install location to a folder on this SSD, the Adobe Acrobat app fails to download/install.

I've attached the error log which shows the reason for the failure. ReFS is not a case-sensitive file system, so this error does not quite make sense.

I instead selected an additional SSD partitioned using NTFS. This works no problem.

do you see anything that makes you think adobe apps are compatible with win's newest file system?  ie, use ntfs.

[Luke Hester]

No I just thought I had done it before successfully.

Thanks, kglad. I didn't consider that.

no problem.  (it happens to lots of people, often with even more personal info than your sig.)
