How to deploy Adobe Reader DC without it taking PDF reader ownership

[Guest]

Hi,

How do i deploy Adobe Reader DC without it taking PDF reader ownership from another non Adobe PDF reader?

My transform file is setup as follows:

Default viewer for PDF files - Installer will decide...

Direct Editor > Properties:

DEFAULT_VERB=Open (changed this from Read)

LEAVE_PDFOWNERSHIP=YES (i added this. I also tried this in the install command line)

OWNERSHIP_STATE=0 (this is for Win8 only. I'm installing on Win7 but thought it couldn't hurt to try it)

I've tried with different variations of the above.

The other PDF reader is Nuance Power PDF Advanced. This is the one i want to remain as the PDF viewer owner.

Thanks,

Aaron

Hi

I am having a similar issue and was wondering if you were able to figure this out? I have tried the same changes that you did but have not had any luck.
