Open a Command prompt<\/p>\n

Change directory to C:\\temp\\<\/p>\n

cd c:\\temp\\<\/pre>\n
Then start unpacking the file with this command;\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
.\\AcroRdrDC2100720099_en_US.exe -sfx_o\"c:\\temp\\adobe\\\" -sfx_ne<\/strong><\/pre>\n
Remember to replace the file name in the command, to fit your install file<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Click Yes to the UAC<\/p>\n
choose C:\\temp\\adobe<\/strong> to extract the installation files, and click OK<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
When you get to this step, the files are extracted at C:\\temp\\adobe<\/strong><\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Leave the installer as is for now<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
If you close it\/ click install, it deletes<\/span><\/span> all the files, so make copy of them before.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Now you can customize the installation, you can do this as you like<\/strong>, here are the settings I usually set;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
i set the Suppress display of End User License Agreement (EULA)\u00a0<\/strong>at Personalization Options<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
i Set Make Reader the default PDF viewer, Silently (No Interface)<\/strong> and Suppress rebot <\/strong>at Installation Options<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
i remove the shotcut on the desktop<\/strong> (right click and choose Remove) at Shotcuts<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
i Prevent end user from Configuring WebMail profile<\/strong> at the WebMail Profiles<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
If the users are not local administrator, or if we use another tool for patching third party apps, i disable the Product updates. <\/strong>Otherwise I leave this<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
And the upsell<\/strong>, Adobe Acrobat Documents Cloud services, Adobe Sign, send for Review<\/strong> and the Third party connectors for dropbox, google drive etc.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
When you are satisfied with the settings that suits your organization, click on File<\/strong> and Save Package<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
