Re: Terminalserver - Language Selection
Hi Shivam,
thank you for your response. I already knew the trick concerning pressing Crtl, when launching Acrobat. However this does not solve my problem, since I cannot expect users to know about this option.
Same is true concerning the preferences settings. English users of course won't be able to change the language since they cannot read a german menu structure.
Sadly I can also not find a proper solution within the customization wizard. I wonder why there is no option like "let user select language at first startup".
I have tried to come across this issue and created a script which will be executed only the first time a user logs on to the terminal server (no local profile available on the machine). It creates a registy key called "select" under: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\2017\Language". This item obviously forces Acrobat to ask which language to select. After selecting a language, the entry will disappear (which is the reason, why the script runs only once). This solves my issue for new users. Nevertheless it's still a problem for existing once, since i would need to update all "Current_User" keys on the machine.
Kind regards,
Morris
Re: DC Reader usage for non-DC users
Within a DC installation, reader binaries are installed in reader-directory of the DC installation.
In our professional infrastructure users do not have permissions to install and uninstall.
User A leaves B's devices without uninstalling DC.
Re: Terminalserver - Language Selection
I finally found a working solution. First I was using a script (RegUpdateAllUsers/RegUpdateAllHkcuHkcr at master · micksmix/RegUpdateAllUsers · GitHub) which iterates trough all users available on a machine. In my case I have edited the script, so it creates the key mentioned in my previous post for every users hkey_current_user entry. As a result of this, the language popup appears for every >existing< user.
Sadly I have encountered problems concerning my logon script. It works perfectly on Windows 7 Machines, but not on a terminal server. I have bypassed the problem by editing the NTUSER.DAT (regedit --> load hive) of the default user, and manually added the key. Thus the key is created as soon as a new user logs on for the first time.
Since the key is automatically deleted after the popup was answered, the user want be asked again.
Re: MSI + MSP + Acrobat DC Customization Wizard = No bueno
We are facing the same issue. After applying patch, the installation is not happening as it says missing files error and rolls back. Could you please tell me what needs to be done after. We are patching the 2018 patch. Is license mandatory for this to work. We dont have licenses provided.
Re: DC Reader usage for non-DC users
Then the enterprise must manage the uninstall somehow.

Is it possible to disable the 'Sign In Later' button when deploying Acrobat Pro DC VIP?
We are deploying the Acrobat Pro DC VIP (Value Incentive Plan) package using SCCM but after starting Acrobat the user is given the option to 'Sign In Later', which allows them to continue using Acrobat with the 'Free Trial' option.
Is it possible to disable the 'Sign In Later' button, leaving only the 'Sign In' option as we don't want the 'Free Trial' to be available to the end user?
Bei der Installation von Acrobat Pro 2017 wird automatisch die digitale Unterschrift des vorhergehenden Nutzers installiert
Wir nutzen Acrobat Pro 2017 im Rahmen einer Volumenlizenz. Im Rahmen der Installation wird bei jedem Anwender gleich die eingescannte Unterschrift hinterlegt. Wenn man die Software danach bei einem anderen Anwender installiert, wird automatisch die Unterschrift des vorherigen Anwenders installiert. Wie kann man das verhindern?

Has anybody managed to make msp patch work?
My steps are simply:
Using base MSI from Acrobat 2017 Release (Classic Track base release) — Release Notes for Acrobat DC Products I create GPO to deploy the package. This works just fine. But when I want to do an upgrade:
- I copy the original MSI base distribution directory to a new one and give it an appropriate name.
- I download MSP file e.g. 17.011.30059 Planned update, August 8, 2017 — Release Notes for Acrobat DC Products
- I put the MSP to the newly folder with the base MSI and its files
- inside that folder I issue msiexec /a AcroRead.msi /p AcroRdr2017Upd1701130059_MUI.msp
- I get some gui dialog which I just click through with Next until it is finished.
- Then, in the same GPO, I add new Software installation and select the acroread.msi from the new folder.
- I click advanced, select Uninstall when falls out of scope and click Upgrade tab, the package is alreade there, I remove it and add again specifically with the option 'Package can upgrade over the existing package' as directed in Group Policy-Active Directory — Enterprise Administration Guide
- I add the transformation file as to the base package.
- When the GPO is updated and the upgrade installed, I get in event viewer the error:
"Product: Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017 MUI -- Error 1334.The file 'icudt.dll' 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 tried various MSPs with the same result. One curious issue is that patching with the MSP creates additional folders 'Common', 'Program Files', 'System32'. Does the MSP patching actually work at all? Is there a way to just get an updated MSI without the problematic MSP fiddling?
Mac Defaults Reader DC advice needed.
Greetings.
I'm trying in vain to stop adobe showing the eula and welcome screen every time a network user runs the program. I've used profile manager to set manual plist changes (com.adobe.Reader.plist) under the DC branch however nothing I seem to do works. I've even tried running the program,setting it up, copying the created plist, uploading it into profile manager and using those settings, still no joy. Please can anyone help as to where I am going wrong.
Thanks
Re: Deploy and patch Reader via GPO
Each time that I attempted to do this over the years, same or similar difficulties arise. And whenever I search for the fix, mostly I find such 'unresolved' threads. For such a common app from such a major developer that regularly pushes out patches to fix newly-found holes, is one wrong to expect a simple, spelled-out, published, reusable method?
Re: How to disable automatic update of Adobe Acrobat 2017 Pro?
Can you also give advice on how to disable automatic updates in the Mac (macOS Sierra) version of Acrobat Pro 2017 (TLP, classic update stream, Release 2017.011.30102)?
If I try to disable automatic updates in preferences, Adobe Acrobat is asking for admin credentials to install a helper tool. If I enter the password, the checkbox is still activated. The only working solution I've found to stop automatic updates so far, is to block Adobe Acrobat Update Helper Tool in the firewall.
Enterprise Trial
Hello,
We currently use Nitro Pro sitewide in our environment. We are considering switching to Acrobat Pro but before we do so we would like to a couple of users to trial it.
Googling 'acrobat pro trial' takes me to a consumer web page where I get a trial for only 7 days and have to enter credit card details for a subscription for after the trial expires. I don't want this because we would pay for it via a reseller with bulk pricing, single key etc..
How do I get the enterprise equivalent of the trial?
Thanks

Re: Enterprise Trial
Serial Number Count
Hi all,
I've recently inherited the task of administering Adobe Acrobat 2017 Licenses for my organization. I've been trying to sort through our installs vs purchased licenses count. We use the TLP license type. I've been told that before we transitioned to the Adobe TLP, there were several boxed retail versions of Adobe Acrobat 2017 purchased and installed. My goal is to sort out which copies are using our TLP serial number, to make sure we stay in compliance with the total number purchased.
Is there any way I can look for this information on my network, or get Adobe to check their systems for this information? I really don't want to wait until we hit the limit and get denied an install, or worse go over that limit and be out of compliance with Adobe. I'm not sure what information adobe keep in regards to mapping a serial number to a device, but ideally a way to track which machines the specific key is on is what I'm looking for. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
