This will extract the MSI needed for an administrative install to the folder Reader9.4 w/o running setup.exe: AdbeRdr940_en_US.exe -nos_o"Reader9.4" -nos_ne Now you can create an administrative install point for deployment and customize (create the MST) using the tool above. -- Mike Gill From: Paul Hutchings [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2010 5:17 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Adobe acrobat reader updates You should find you can deploy the MSI via Group Policy and it'll take care of everything for you. Take a look at the Adobe Customization Tool as well as you can disable things like checking for updates.
