With the previous version of Adobe Reader XI, Adobe provided a tool for customizing the installation. Now that the contents of the base installer have been extracted, we can move on to creating our own customization to the installation, where we will disable some of the features that may not be eligible for enterprise environments. Right-click on the base installer and use 7-zip to extract the content to C:\AdobePackage. Download the base installer from the link above to any place of your choosing.ģ. Create a folder called AdobePackage in the root of the C: drive.Ģ. The base installer for Adobe Acrobat Reader 2015 DC can be downloaded at the following location:ġ.

The Classic Update track workflow is the same as for deploying Adobe Reader X and XI, only with a few slight improvements. For an enterprise, who’re used to deploy Adobe Reader in a more controlled fashion, the Classic Update track would be the way to go. The Continuous Update track is aimed more at home users that want to leverage all of the features with this new version of Adobe Acrobat Reader and get the latest version installed silently and automatically. Adobe has also with this new version released two update tracks, Continuous Update and Classic Update.
