In my enterprise environment we have several users who use all things adobe an creative cloud. We would like a configuration solution in order to allow licensed users to updated adobe apps without admin priviledges.

I have seen this documentation. https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/basics.html#update-order But it does not offer what I need. I want users to be able to update application with out needing local or network admin rights.

Install update and subscribe to Acrobat

Hi @Alexander29605169ubq8 ,

Have you tried creating a Managed Package via the Admin Console? With Managed packages, you can decide what gets deployed and when it gets updated. You do not have to provide Admin rights to standard users for updating Acrobat. You can create packages that contain the latest or archived versions of Adobe products.

For more information on Creating Managed packages, click here.

By default Acrobat can update itself running in Admin or Standard user context.

Did you experienced any issues?

Acrobats runs fine as a standard user, however in order to updated the user needs elevated priviledges. This goes for any adobe products. The goal is to allow standard users to updated apps when needed without admin rights. How can this be accomplished?

Acrobat Updater can elevate itself for update installation for Admin and Standard users.
