Adobe Acrobat Pro - Disable Product Registration

Hello

I have installed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro into an AppStack and its working fine, however when it launches the user is prompted to register the product.

On our View 5 installation (using Persona Management) when we click "Skip" and "Do not ask again", the user is never prompted again.

On our new Horizon 7 solution using AppVolumes and UEM, the user is asked every logon, even though they have selected to Skip and "Do not ask again", which is really annoying.

Has anyone had this behaviour previously?

Regrads,

Sean

If you are talking about the EULA message at first startup, that's a computer message that can easily be removed in the AppStack.

Go to the Registry and add the following rule:

Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Key: Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\11.0\Adobe\Viewer
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: EULAAcceptedForBrowser
Data: 1

Or just google and you will find the MSI parameter to accept the EULA at installation (provisioning of the AppStack).

Hi Pim

It was actually the product registration for Acrobat Pro rather than the EULA. I have figured it out though.

I had to download the Adobe Customisation Wizard toolkit, create a custom MSI and Transform file. One of the settings is to disable the registration

I had this issue as well. For anyone that's also looking, I found the below command worked for me. You would need the transforms file but I don't think its required. Just remove that part if you dont have one. The IGNOREVC10RT part is if you're installing on a 64bit OS and have the VC++ installed and the installer isnt picking it up.

msiexec.exe /I "acropro.msi" IGNOREVC10RT=1 EULA_ACCEPT=YES REGISTRATION_SUPPRESS=YES /TRANSFORMS=acropro.mst
