Dynaletik Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 Perhaps Adobe Reader tries to repair the installation because you move out plugins that AR needs..my cmd file for the AR cleanup is the following and it works perfectly.cmdow @ /HID@echo off%SYSTEMDRIVE%CD "%programfiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader"RD Optional /S /QRENAME Plug_Ins OptionalMD Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\Annotations Plug_Ins\AnnotationsMOVE /Y Optional\eBook.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\EWH32.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\EScript.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\ImageViewer.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\Search.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\Search*.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\Spelling.* Plug_InsMOVE /Y Optional\weblink.* Plug_InsIt isn't as lite as yours, but try it and then figure out what plugins AR needs.
Dynaletik Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 Do that and post your result.....cause my AR did the same when I tried to clean it with AdobeReader Speedup etc.
Rico.JohnnY Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 I have the same problem too.After the UA install of winxp, I launch adobe reader 7 for the first time.And then a MSI configuring window pops up asking me to insert FrontPage 2003 CD.So..how to avoid that annoying window,anyone has got an idea?
Nanaki Posted January 28, 2005 Author Posted January 28, 2005 New batch works.The Frontpage thing is proba a frontpage plug-in. Do you modify your adobe directory?
Rico.JohnnY Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 i use RyanVM's switchless edition and do no change during the whole install process. Everything is by default.any suggestion?
Nanaki Posted January 28, 2005 Author Posted January 28, 2005 Alright, try this.Use RegSnap or something and take a snapshot BEFORE opening ar7 for the first time and after it has configured. I'm pretty sure it's a registry value that has to change.
Rico.JohnnY Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 umm..sounds feasible.will try it in the next install. thx anyway..
Joe User 99 Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 - Windows installs- at T-12 all applications installs- First boot- I open Acrobat Reader 7- Launches a MSI windows syaing it's configuring acrobat reader.- Pops up a "insert disk" errorI think the problem you are having is part of the MSI self healing process.If you look in the Application Event log, it should mention what was missing.Just a guess, but most likely it will be the HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys in the registry. I figure when you install it at the T-12 spot, that is not the same HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive as your account. So when the check is run, it finds those missing and repairs itself. If this is the problem, what you would need to do, would be to remove the KeyPath check for all the current user keys in the MSI.Now, this is just a guess, as I am not installing mine during windows setup.But have a look. Hope it helps.
Nanaki Posted January 28, 2005 Author Posted January 28, 2005 Yeah, that problem's been solved. I deleted too many plug-ins. but tnx
