Joe User 99 Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Add these registry keys:"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\6.0\FeatureLockdown\bUpdater=0" "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\6.0\Updater\iUpdateFrequency=0" "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\6.0\Updater\bShowNotifDialog=0" "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\6.0\Updater\bShowAutoUpdateConfDialog=0"I use them in a transform I created along with other options, grab it from this thread that you already read (seeing as how you posted a reply in it.):http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=19245&st=10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wamatt Posted June 22, 2004 Author Share Posted June 22, 2004 (edited) Actually wanted a reg file. I converted this.[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\6.0\FeatureLockdown]"bUpdater"="0"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\6.0\Updater]"iUpdateFrequency"="0""bShowNotifDialog"="0""bShowAutoUpdateConfDialog"="0"Which makes strings and not DWORDS, which should be correct right?

nomadturk Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Maybe you didn't realize but this is a forum for "Unattended" application installs. Meaning people doesn't want their users to follow that instructions. They just want that nagging updater to be closed automatically right after the installation.
