    Hi McQueen,

    Please follow the below mentioned steps:

    1. Navigate to C/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/OOBE and rename to OOBE.old.

    2. Ensure to create a 32 bit package for 32 bit machine and vice versa.

    3. Follow the below sequence of Installation for Acrobat:

        a. Run the Exception deployer command from Exception to deploy Acrobat

        b. Then run the msi/setup from Build and launch Acrobat.

    So for Acrobat Pro XI I have to follow these steps?

    1.ExceptionDeployer.exe --workflow=install --mode=pre or can I run the msi that is in the ex

    2. Run the setup.exe or msi

    3. ExceptionDeployer.exe --mode=post

    And for the other products created with CCP for example Photoshop CC I have to follow these steps?

    1. Run setup.exe or msi

    2. Exceptiondeployer.exe --workflow=install --mode=pre

    3. Exceptiondeployer.exe --workflow=install --mode=post

    What happens if I choose not to run the Exeptiondeployer for Photoshop CC? What is installed from the exceptionfolder? There is a msi-file in the exception folder. Can I run the msi instead of the ExceptionDeployer.exe?

    Thanks,

    John

    Hi McQueen,

    1) Acrobat needs to be deployed first and you can use the command as : ExceptionDeployer.exe --workflow=install --mode=pre .

    2 )If you wish to install rest of the product (Excluding Lightroom and Muse) use the command mentioned below .

    Msiexec /I "path of setup.exe" /qn

    Path of Setup.exe : Should be exact location within the Build folder .

    3) For installing the remaining two products , you can install them using the following command .

    ExceptionDeployer.exe --workflow=install --mode=post

    Please keep in mind that we need to rung these commands in CMD running with Admin privileges .

    Cheers,
