MCT Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 start the install, when it gets to the first window goto c:\program files\adobe\reader\7.0\setup i think it is, if not there try temp directory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aresgodofwar Posted December 22, 2004 Author Share Posted December 22, 2004 you got me on the right path MCT, thank you. the exact path for those that want to know is c:\program files\adobe\acrobat 7.0\setup files\rdrbig\enu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a06lp Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 so this msi is all we need for the silent install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 no you need msi and cab.Look for the topic titled =>"Adobe Reader Strikes again" in the Application Switches Forumhttp://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=34404&hl=Your answers and more will be in there.

Astalavista Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 here is what i did1. Install Adobe Acrobat 7 (AdbeRdr70_enu_full.exe)2. Go to c:\program files\adobe\acrobat 7.0\setup files\rdrbig\enu3. You will find several files.take the Adobe Acrobat 7.msi and rename to Setup.msiHere is how u would repack the files Use Winrar and Create a SFXWith this Comment;The comment below contains SFX script commandsSetup=setup.msi /quiet /norestartTempModeSilent=1Overwrite=1Title=Adobe Acrobat Reader 7 Silent InstallAdd this to you your RegTweaks [remove the Eula ][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\7.0\AdobeViewer]"EULA"=dword:00000001[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\7.0\AdobeViewer]"TrustedMode"=dword:00000000"EULA"=dword:00000001This is while we wait for RyanVM's compressed version.Later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiMoNsAyS Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 you can also build an administrative installation point that will reduce the size "msiexec.exe /a path\adobereader7.msi" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
