I got this error on a W7-64 pc while installing CS6 Designstandard from DVD after successfully running CreativeCloudCleanerTool.exe.

Is there somebody who has a decision?

My Humble Apologies for the late reply ,  I had checked with all errors mentioned .

May I know whether you had tried installing using Download Installer file once?  As we are getting error DF012 , it is necessary to check with installer file once and verify there is no problem with setup files.

If not possible to download , try copying the contents of DVD to computer and attempt to install .

Follow below steps :

1) Clear System and User Temp folder.

2) Make sure Windows Installer and Windows Module Installer services as Started and the Startup Type is set to Manual option .

3)Copy contents of DVD to computer , or use Downloaded Installer file.

4) If present delete Acrobat Pro folder from C: > Program Files(x86) > Adobe.

Note :

Make sure to run Acrobat Cleaner tool and confirm there are no remnants of Acrobat Pro.

Then try to install again and check.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Still same?? We might need to check with folder permissions and proceed with further steps.

Let me know if you still face same issue  or if you need to step by step instructions. .

If you wish to use downloaded installer file , you may use below link :

Download Creative Suite 6 applications

[StephanP_HF]

I've cleared Temp folders.

Windows Installer and Windows Module Installer are started and set to Manual.

DVD content copied to HDD.

Adobe folder in Program Files(x86) deleted.

Acrobat Cleaner tool used, but not sure if there are any remnants left!

This is the actual Error report from last installing:

Hi there again with an additional error message from the windows installer:

MsiInstaller, Event-ID 1023, ErrorCode 1603.

Is it neccessary to paste the whole message belonging to this error?

Thank you in advance!

[Govardhan.V]

If you wish you may enable Hidden Admin account and try to install once :

Step 1)

Click on Start menu button and then in the search box type in as CMD.

In the search results list , locate the option Command Prompt.

Right click on Command Prompt option and then select " Run as Administrator"  .

It will open Command Prompt window in elevated mode.

Step 2)

Now copy below command then right click on Command Prompt black screen window and select Paste option and press Enter key.

net user administrator /active:yes

You should see a message that the command completed successfully.

Step 3)

Restart the computer and login to user account named " Administrator"  and then try to install Acrobat Pro application and check.

Still same ??? Let me know

[StephanP_HF]

I do all of the installation with the administrative account from the domain.

Is it neccessary to do it with the administrator account from the client?

[Govardhan.V]

You can try once , later you can disable it using below command :

net user administrator /active:no

[Govardhan.V · Accepted solution]

Error 1603 is an Fatal error which occurs during installation of Windows Installer Package, there are different reasons , main reason is due to insufficient permissions to install the application on to destination folders .

Hence , we will try to install via Built-In Hidden Admin account once , it has super user privileges.

We will give a try once.

[StephanP_HF]

Thank you, that was the correct advice.

Doing the whole unistall / install as local administator was the solution for me!

Thanks a lot!

[Govardhan.V]

Glad to hear that .

You are welcome
