I always used the exe instead of the msi. No need to create mms.cfg, 100% success rate.

I suspect that Adobe's rules are not correct and machines are trying to install both plugin and activex when they don't all actually need both. I've messed around some with PatchMyPC catalog but honestly I just haven't had time to try to figure out what the deal is. Once I get all my computers reimaged over the next couple months I'm going to spend some time on this.

From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kevin Johnston Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2015 8:00 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: [mssms] Adobe Updates and SCUP question Currently we are poised to use Secunia for Adobe updates, but because they have no uninstall or upgrade feature because the vendor does not, I was wondering if anyone uses SCUP for Adobe updates (Flash, Reader, Shockwave) and are able to update these products without having to run an uninstaller first, then reboot then install the latest version. We use SCCM 2012 R2 now, and I could just create a package that includes running the Flash uninstaller first then run the latest installer created by Secunia and then copy over the proper mms.cfg file, but I was hoping for a more automated feature. I know Adobe does not make their products fun or easy. I believe I read that using the Adobe MSI does in fact uninstall flash as part of it’s install… Thanks, Kevin Johnston Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail is from a law firm and may be protected by the attorney-client or work product privileges.
