Hello,
I am trying to create an installer for Adobe Acrobat 11 Pro. I have used the customization wizard to create a transform file for the install and specified it to be silent. However, it appears that windows are still opening in the background when the installer runs, which causes my department's automated installer service to close out of the install thinking the installer is "broken."
The windows appear to be "Moving ____ to recycle bin" messages, meaning the Acrobat MSI is moving the setup files rather than deleting them completely.
Is there a way to change this behavior in order to make the installer delete the files instead of moving them?
The command is currently:
if exist [file generated to determine if a prior uninstall was sucessful] (msiexec /i "[PATH]Adobe Acrobat Pro\Adobe Acrobat 11 Pro\AcroPro.msi" /qn CLIENTUILEVEL=0 TRANSFORMS=[PATH]\Adobe Acrobat Pro\Adobe Acrobat 11 Pro\AcroPro.mst" /l*v "[PATH]\adobe.log")
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Drew

Hi Drew,
Please navigate to the location in Command prompt where you have Acropro.msi. Then run this command.
msiexec /i "AcroPro.msi" TRANSFORMS="AcroPro.mst" /qn
Please ensure to launch Command prompt as an Admin.
Please let us know if it helps.
Regards,
Abhijit

If you are installing on a machine that Acrobat 10 previously then this is likely deleting the old Adobe PDF Printer files if anything instead of the Setup files. I don't believe there is a way to change this behavior.
