Re: Adobe Acrobat 7 on TS

A lot of programs finish the installation when the program is
started for the first time. For Acrobat, I believe it is the
License Agreement and possibly a language option that has to be set
on first execution.

My standard procedure after each installation is to put the server
in "install mode" (type: "change user /install" at the command
prompt) and then start the application as Administrator.

Since you probably already have run Acrobat as Administrator, you
cannot do this any more from the default Administrator account. You
will have to create a fresh account with administrator rights (an
account that has not previously run Acrobat), put the TS in install
mode and run Acrobat.
