The CCP is not usually used to install Acrobat. So install Acrobat as described first. The install the other CC products with the CCP.
In some cases the CCP can be used. To see if that applies in your case, see Creative Cloud Packager Installs — Enterprise Administration Guide

I installed Adobe Acrobat DC through msiexec with my upgrade licenses key. After I install it, I go to START/ALL PROGRAM to launch DC from there, when I launch it I receive this:
This screen will run for a few minutes and then close, never actually launching DC. But I can go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 2015\Acrobat and launch it from there using the Acrobat.exe.
I also have it that after I installed it, I went to START/ALL PROGRAM to launch it and there is no Icons next to the application:
No icons on PDF on the desktop:
I'm testing this for my Enterprise and we launch the install via SCCM. Some systems it install correctly and some systems I receive the issues I have stated above. Does any one know what is causing this not to install correctly on some but not others?
Can I install via Setup.exe and still use the transform I created via the Acrobat Customization Wizard?
Hi!I
have a question for you to help me , I think visio files ( Microsoft ) where do Hyperlinks between different pages of the document for easier navigation . when I transform to PDF , the document allows me to navigate through hyperlinks but I have the option to also navigate the scroll , I block navigating the scroll , only to let me navigate the hyperlinks .Can I help you ?THANK YOU !!
Yes, provided there is an entry in the setup.ini file somewhat like the following:
...
CmdLine=TRANSFORMS="AcroPro.mst"
Thanks,
Solved the problem.
I had to put in a pause step between the base installation and the update installation, probably some background process hadn't finished before trying to apply the update.
Hi Jules.
To investigate on the issue we would want to know couple of things -
1. Which version of Acrobat & Reader you using
2. Also, please share the details of the permissions for the registry key, right click on the key and select Permissions.
Thanks,
binny
Here's what I finally determined to be the solution:
1. Create a Acrobat Pro DC package via the Create Cloud Packager. I did both x86 & x64 because I have a mixed environment. They look amazingly similar, but they are NOT. I found this out the hard way.
2. Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (both x86 & x64) from Microsoft's download page. - I did this because I don't think of this as strictly as prerequisite for Acrobat, but something that may be a prerequisite for other applications, so I package it separately.
3. Created a .MST using the Adobe Customization Wizard.
4 Create a script that performs the following:
4.1. Install Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable
4.2. Install ..\Exceptions\APRO15.0en_US\Adobe Acrobat\AcroPro.msi using /qn /l*v "<logfile>" TRANSFORMS=My_Default.mst
4.3. Install ..\Build\Acrobat Pro DC.msi /qn /l*v "<logfile>"
4.5. Execute ..\Exceptions\ExceptioinDeployer --workflow=install --mode=post ==installLanguage=en_US
If anyone cares, my script also does the following:
Pre-install: Stops Creative Cloud.exe if it is running.
Post-Install: Removes two keys from the registry responsible for looking for updates, and executing Creative Cloud.exe.
Deletes the Adobe Creative Cloud icon from the desktop.
I am trying to package 11.0.11 and I get the following error.
Adobe_Reader_v11.0.11 -- Error 1334.The file 'acroext.exe' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'Data1.cab'. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.
I used the following command to create the package:
msiexec /a AcroRead.msi /p AdbeRdrUpd11011.msp
I read that this step should be done in two transactions, however that didn't work and I got a different error when attempting it that way. I am at a loss as to how to remediate this. Has anyone else ran into this issue?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi, Darren,
HKCU settings have always been per user, so your statement about XI is incorrect.
The examples show you using the Classic track and the Continuous track for Reader. They both look right and they both work the same way.
hth,
Ben
Anyone seen following error with Acrobat v9.x - "Fatal Error: Acrobat failed to connect to DDE Server"
Hi Ben,
thx for your reply, i am sure that this worked with XI:
I didn't use any further REG keys or Active Directory optimizations, you can test it with a vmware.
Anyway the best way to deploy my reg keys seems to be a user setting bundle with HKCU in the deployment tool!?
Since if i would use HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT it wouldn't work as an update bundle!?
Regards
Darren
Hello Binny and thank you for the response.
We've had the problem using Adobe Reader 11 along with Adobe Acrobat 11 and Also using version 12 of both or any combination in between.
Below is a screen shot of the permissions on the userchoice key for the pdf file extension preference along with a screen shot of how windows hashes the value in the registry for the progid, which would read something like acroExch.Document.11 if it weren't hashed. This is apparently a default behavior in Server 2012R2 (both setting the deny write value on the key so that only the "Open With" process can change the registry value, as well as hashing the value of the key, both apparently security features so that a virus can't change your default programs for file extensions).
We have installed Adobe Reader and Professional throughout the county. Now we are using Adobe Forms. They are saved in our document management system Laserfiche. We have Topaz signature pads to sign the forms with. When we installed the software as admin, configured it with the signature and advance security settings we had no problems opening the Forms from within Laserfiche and signing them.
Now we log out as admin user and in as general user and they cannot sign the document using the Topaz signature pad. It wants to do certificate style signing...not acknowledge the Topaz signature pad. IF I log back in as admin it has no issue. I did the test to the desktop using the Topaz demo and was able within the Windows environment to sign the PDF on the desktop.
What settings within Adobe can I set so that no matter who logs into the machine they will have the ability to use the Topaz signature pads while filling in and signing an Adobe form?
Thanks,
Hallo
Ich will mit dem Adobe Acrobat Pro DC einen silent install machen. Ich habe alles mit dem Acrobat Customization Wizard DC alles konfiguriert und die Seriennummer xy schon eingegeben. Sobald ich nun den Silent install starte läd er kurz die Dateien und es kommt ein error,
es steht aber nur die Seriennummer.error. Der Fehler besteht weiterhin wenn ich die Seriennummer in der ABCPY.INI Datei eingebe. Sobald ich ohne Seriennummer installiere funktioniert alles problemlos und ich kann auch am Schluss auf diese Seriennummer registrieren.
Hat jemand eine Idee für die Problemlösung?
Gruss
Fabian
Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.14 / Windows 8 / Office 2013
Beim Versuch eine PDF-Datei per E-Mail zu verschicken erscheint untenstehende Dialog. Outlook ist als Standard E-Mail Programm eingerichtet
I have Acrobat 9.0 version. I created a .PDF with a link. When I open the PDF in Adobe Reader 10.1.13, the link works. When I open the PDF in Adobe Reader 10.1.14 the link does NOT work. HELP!
Hi does anyone know how I can disable protected mode at startup in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC either using the customization wizard or using the registry? I have found articles for version XI and version 10 but not sure if these will work with DC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks
CW
I don't know how to do it with the Customization Wizard, but I can tell you how to do it via the registry. It depends on the installation version number; download the registry scripts below to see what to change.
See this topic for an explanation of the different version numbers: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1856824
