Issue with EUM and Adobe Pro Office Plugin Security settings and Persistence

Using App Volumes to push Adobe Pro XI to user in Instant Clone Windows 10 environment.   User needs to open Word (2013) and clicks the Acrobat Tab, Preferences, Security and then Enters Permissions with Password and allows changes to be made.  Below is the screenshot....I have tried the Flex Config file for Acrobat Pro 11 and even tried the app profiler.  Still these settings will not persist.   Anyone know where the registry for this is stored?  Is it in Word or Acrobat?  I'm at wits end.

Thanks

Ended up being a couple of issues.

First, we had multiple INI files for Adobe Acrobat.  We used Application Profiler to create an INI for Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.  We also disabled Adobe Acrobat INI files with overlapping persistence settings.  Finally, we disabled DirectFlex, as Acrobat.exe was not launching when using the plug-in for MS Word. 

Thanks for your help.

I don't have Acrobat Pro to test, but this seems like you are adding a password to encrypt the file.

Isn't this information stored in the Word/PDF file? How would you otherwise be able to share this file and still allow the users to enter the password?
