Adobe Reader X Installation Win 7

Hello All,
I am trying to install Adobe Reader X on my computer which is running Windows 7 Pro 64bit, however I am getting an error.
PS, the setup/installation file I am trying to download is "install_reader10_en_aih.exe" from Adobe's website. The file is 766KB, but under http://get.adobe.com/reader/ it says 51.95MB beside it.
Needless to say the error I am receiving is:
At which the setup/installation file gets automatically deleted from my computer.
Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • Adobe Reader X installation issue

    Adobe Reader X installation caused me a very strange, unusual problem. My OS is Win XP SP3 and I have already installed Adobe Acrobat v.9.4.5.
    The installation process went fine, but when my system had to be restarted after the installation at the domain login the system requested me to change my password, because of the expiring. It was very strange, because the PW has been changed 2 weeks before regarding the official 3 months period rule. I did the change now again, but after that I could not reach anyway a https web site (with certificate) and additionally has been destroyed my predefined signature in  the Adobe Acrobat.
    Well, after a longer wrestling with my system I could restore the missed functionalities (I had to remove the Reader too for this). However later I needed again the Reader for a test purpose and after the new installation exactly the same problem happend as above I described!
    Has someone faced with any similar case?
    BR: Dzsenix

    Thanks for the info. Maybe that would be nice to build into the Reader and/or Acrobat a function to check any existing installed Adobe versions on the PC and warn the user if there would be any incompatibility issue during the installation of a new Adobe product. Many no-name programs can do that............ The great Adobe no would be able to do that???????

  • Adobe Reader 9 Installer on Desktop?

    I just installed Adobe Reader 9 on a new Win Vista machine and it intalled three icons on my desktop: Adobe Reader 9, Adobe Reader 9 Installer, Acrobat.com. I understand why I need the Adobe Reader 9, but why were the other two left on my desktop after the intall? Can I delete the Adobe Reader 9 Installer and the Acroat.com? I don't really want them on my desktop if I don't need them. Thanks for the help. Mac

    I have the same thing. I use Vista home Premium
    I notice the adobe reader 9 installer folder is full of stuff. I wonder if you can delete it after reader 9 is installed?
    Also I have adobe Air in my programs. Can that be deleted too?
    Now when I first downloaded reader 9 I clicked ok for the Adobe DLM active x and that allowed something called "getPlus for Adobe" from NOS Microsystems. When I installed adobe Reader 9 on another computer, I did not click ok to Adobe DLM active x and i did NOT get reader 9installer on my dek top nor the getPlus for Adobe
    I wonder if you don't use Adobe DLM active X and if you delete Adobe Air, Acrobat.com, doe you still have the newer secure Reader 9 functions?

  • Adobe reader 11 installation fails. error message: there was an error installing adobe reader. adobe

    Adobe reader 11 installation fails. error message: there was an error installing adobe reader. adobe reader installation error. null. tried using adobe cleaning  tool. using XP sp3. seems that adobe 11 is not completely uninstalling. this is because when adobe reader  11 is removed  from add/remove program. when pc is rebooted, adobe reader 11 entry comes back but it is  like false entry as no size given. please help to succesfully install Adobe Reader 11.  also tried:
    1. uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled  2. installed from different locations  3. removed adobe key from
    local machine and tried to install

    Seriously, I do not understand what is going on - I have never seen this before!
    The MSI installers are usually used in corporate environments to roll out installs on multiple machines.  However, you can use it like a normal (EXE) installer; it will just go through fewer steps than the EXE.  Not sure if it will improve the situation, but it's worth a try.
    Another thing to try is to uninstall these remaining entries using Microsoft Fixit: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall - also no guarantee, but also worth trying.

  • Adobe Reader 9 installation freezes computer

    upon running the installation for adobe reader 9, setup gets to 99.90 percent, then a new window comes up, similar to the installation window. Estimated time remaining gets to 9 seconds, then the installation freezes, and so does everything else. A cold reboot is required...
    I'm currently using foxit reader to read PDFs (Also, programs that print to PDF files cause a similar freeze.
    Computer details:
    Vista 32 bit Home premium.
    3gb ram
    300+gb hard disk space more than 50gb free
    Dell inspiron 530 desktop
    Spyware doctor - Avira antivir - and Threatfire installed
    Interestingly enough, this is being typed in an open firefox window as the installer is frozen, along with the desktop and taskbar.
    Additional details:
    Reader (at that time version 8)
    Along with PDFcreator both worked perfectly on my system
    After reinstalling windows to clear my system *and changing antivirus to Avira - note no security issues are flagged by avira when installer runs*
    Pdf creator went buggy. Pdfs printed by PDF creator would freeze when Reader tried opening them. (Although after restarting the system those same pdfs could be opened)
    An attempt to repair the Adobe reader installation for version 8 failed, Then Opening Reader alone would freeze my computer. And I had to crudely uninstall Reader as a result. *May have left files - but I've scoured the Temp folders for them*
    Anyway, installing adobe reader 9 then led to the error. (Interestingly, adobe reader 9 did appear installed after a cold reboot, and worked, however it dissapeared after the next normall restart.
    &I've tried installing using a new acc, same error.
    &FOxit reader works
    &Adobe version 8 does not appear on my system.
    &All normal computer functions seem to work..(Although a video on Gamespot recently displayed buggy stuff, not related i think)
    &Installations of other programs work
    &i've tried installing in a different directory
    &Spyware doc, Threatfire, and Avira scans come up clean.
    Just restarted *cold reboot*
    The system took a long time to shut down *held the power button for longer*
    And the hard disk didnt stop spinning for a very long time...
    It also took a very long time to start the computer
    Also, running an installer makes me undo the changes made by the adobe reader 9 installation, since it was suspeneded.

    Use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup to remove vestiges of any version of
    Reader in your Registry. Then turn off all antivirus and spyware
    programs. Then try to re-install

    There is a problem reading this document (18)" ... I'm running Adobe Reader 11.0 / Win 8.0

    Hi Ahmet,
    Are you facing the issue with all the pdfs or any specific pdf?
    Was it working fine for you before?
    Try repairing Reader from the 'hlep' menu and check if that works.
    Regards,

  • Cannot Delete Adobe Reader 9 Installer after failed download

    I tried to download Adobe Reader 9 and the installation froze around 83%.  After multiple attempts I tried downloading an older version (Adobe 8) and it worked but the installation folder for Adobe 9 is still on my desktop and it will not let me delete it. I have already tried using the Windows Install cleanup tool but it did not work. Any other ideas on how I can get rid of this installation program?

    Thanks.. I managed to find a way to make it work.. I had no Adobe Reader in my list of programs when I went to Start | Control Panel | Add/Remove..  I took a  chance and deleted Acrobat.com.. that allowed me to reload the latest v of Reader.  I hope it didn't mess anything else up.

    Subject: Cannot Delete Adobe Reader 9 Installer after failed download
    I had same situation. Was able to delete by the following: (don't know why)
    In Windows Explorer dragged the Adobe AIR folder from Desktop to another folder (which
    removed it from the desk top display). Then just deleted it from the other folder.
    Hope it works for you.

  • HP pavilion g6 adobe reader 8 installer problem

    I got a problem: (just got vista)
    When I run the Adobe Reader 8 installer, I get this: Screenshot
    I am really glad if you guys can help me to figure this out.Coz i love my HP laptop...thanks

    First, I would use the latest version of Reader XI. But you need to empty your temp folder. You can have a temp folder off the C: drive and you can have a temp folder in your Personal Settings Folder.

  • Adobe Reader 9 Installer

    Now that I am running Adobe Reader XI can I delete the Adobe Reader 9 Installer?

    There is no longer a need for AR9, so yes. For future questions on Reader, try the Reader forum.

  • How to unlock and remove comments in Adobe Reader X for WIN 7?

    A while ago I left a comment in an adobe file and now I want to change it or remove it. The problem is that I can't do anything to the comment, because it is locked and it seems that I don't have the permission to do that. I run Win 7, 64bit.
    When I select properties on the comment by right clicking on it in the Comment List on the right in the Properies window the Locked checkbox is empty, gray and unselectable. The fact that the Locked checkbox is empty should mean that the comment is not locked but there is an icon next to it that pictures a small lock. I am confused. Is it locked? Is it not? Is there anything I can do to remove or change this comment?
    Next to the Locked checkbox is a Make Properties Default checkbox which is selectable but I believe unrelated to what I want to do. What do I do?

    I do not know what causes this; I do not have any such problem on a very similar system.  But if I did have such a problem, I would
    make sure the latest Adobe Reader version is installed
    make sure all Windows updates are installed
    check if there is a newer printer driver version available
    see if temporarily disable AV would prevent the problem
    Sorry, no other ideas.

  • Adobe Reader 9, Installer error 1635

    Hi, I have a problem updating Adobe Reader 9.4.2. to version 9.4.3
    Direct after starting the update I receive the installer error:
    "1635 This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package."
    I have tried this MS fix (MicrosoftFixit50123.msi) but it did not help.

    I must say that a few days ago I also had an issue updating Adobe FlashPlayer. It would tell me at boot there was an update available, and after giving it the OK it started downloading, and installing, but although the installing gave no errors at all, both the FlashPlayers for Internet Explorer and Firefox were NOT updated, and only after a lot of these 'fake' updates I noticed it because a following update for Firefox told me my FlashPlayer was out of date while I saw FlashPlayer update that same morning.
    Downloading and un-installing/re-installing both FlashPlayers did the trick...  But now, a few days later another Adobe product has a problem updating.
    I have not yet re-installed the reader, but since I have seen it work for 4 years, and since it MAY be related to Adobe Flash, I would like to see if someone can shine some light on this issue first.
    I work with Windows XP Prof completely updated ( except... Adobe Reader).
    Thanks.
    Edit:
    Meanwhile i have tried to uninstall Adobe Reader, but the same error persist.

    As far as I can see the problem is solved.
    You gave me the tip for the Windows Cleanup Utility, but the support for the program has stopped because some removals did damage to other installs. So I had some second thoughts about it.
    But your idea brought me another, to use the Revo Uninstaller.
    http://www.revouninstaller.com/
    * Made a system restore point
    * Downloaded Revo uninstaller Pro 30 day trial, but full version.
    * Run Revo ( ! Adobe Reader 9 had 664 registry keys with 902 values...)
    * Needed a reboot to remove last files from the Adobe reader 9.
    * Roughly checked if other Adobe products still run...
    * Downloaded and installed Adobe Reader X  ( ? X ? It is version 10.0.1 after updating)
    * Did an update of Reader X
    * Needed reboot after update.
    Ankit_Jain, the link you gave for the Reader 9 download is an US version, but I needed a Dutch (NL) version. That's why I searched for the Reader on the Adobe site, but came on the Reader X page. I thought the X stands for 'the latest version'. But it is not.
    So I have a functioning reader back, with one difference:  it is not Reader 9, but Reader X . I really don't know what the difference is, but what I do know is that the install takes quite a long time, and, if you don't uncheck the box on the site for the (free) McAfee scanner, it will also install that.
    I will try what I have for now, and if I may find other problems around it I will surely report back.
    Thanks all for your reactions

  • Adobe Reader 11 Installation Package is getting more over 500 MB after applying 11.0.0.1 MSP Patch

    Hello,
    I try to create an installable MSI Package with the MSP 11.0.0.1 applied to the 11.0.0 MUI Package. Then I want to deploy this to our clients in the company. I have done this with Adobe Reader X a couple of times very successful. What I have noticed now the original 11.0.0 Package has a size of 134MB if I apply the msp patch (the msp patch itself has 10MB) as usual the new package get a size of 583MB. This is too large and with Version 10 this was no issue at all. Does anyone has an idea why this is happening or seen the same behaivour?
    Thanks
    Ben

    Did you find a solution ? I have the same problem with patch 11.0.03 and can't find any information...
    Are we the only two that are bothered by this ?
