Installation of Adobe Reader Stops

I had issues with Adobe Reader so I ran the repair from the Control Panel which did not work then I uninstalled the program.  Now I am unable to reinstall the application as the installation stops before completion.  I went through the troubleshooting steps and am unable to resolve the issue.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I am running Windows 8.1

Hi smrflwr,
1. What is the error that you are getting?
2. Have you tried installing Acrobat Reader DC (http://get2.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/) after restarting your computer?
3. Enable the MSI logging on your machine (How to Enable Microsoft Installer logging and Verbose logging to gather additional troubleshooting Information) and please share the latest MSI logs that are created while installing Acrobat Reader DC.
Thanks.

  • Adobe Reader stop constantly Win 7 x64

    I have Windows 7 x64 bits with SP1.
    I download the current and previous Adobe Reader X (version 10.1.12).
    I cannot operate this program at all. Everytime I open a pdf document, within 10 seconds, the screen froze and dialog panel say this program stopped executing. I have to exit.
    In fact, when I google "Windows 7 Adobe Reader stopped working" or "Windows 7 Adobe Reader X stopped working" there are hundreds of entries.
    But no solution. Is this Adobe Reader software such unreliable pieces of software?
    So, how do I view the pdf documents?

    you might have a bad Reader install

    you're missing plugins (by a large margin )
    chk your c:\program files (x86)\Adobe\. .. \plugins
    whats in there
    do a disk repair // too make sure your disk isnt corrupted
    from explorer | C: | properties | Tools | Error-checking | Check now | (do NOT chk 'recover bas sectors'!) | because its C:, you will be prompted to 'schedule Chkdsk 'at next boot' | yes you do
    reboot
    boot | have your disk chk for bad sectors at next boot
    (the better way is to reboot in System Recovery | Command Prompt | do a CHKDK /F there, but you have to know to get there)
    (above wont repair Reader (but chk plugins, who knows), so, then:)
    go Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features
    chk Adobe Reader X
    choose "Change"
    do:
    "Repair installation errors in the program. This option fixes missing or corrupt files shortcuts registry etc .."
    chk again: ReaderX | plugins there now?
    if not
    uninstall / reinstall
    again chk presence of plugins

  • Offline installation of Adobe Reader 11 in Greek Language

    Hi,
    I have to prepare an offline installation guide with the packages to install Adobe Reader 11 with several languages.
    I found all of the required packages (e.g. AdbeRdr11000_de_DE.exe, AdbeRdr11000_en_US.exe, AdbeRdr11000_tr_TR.exe etc.) but one in Greek.
    Where can I find the offline installation of Adobe Reader for Greek Language?
    Regards,

    Thank you for reply Pat.
    I did see v.10 of Acrobat in Greek but I really need v. 11 to be consistent. I also checked the MUI version of v.11 and it does not have Greek either.
    Did Acrobat stop to support Greek Language?
    Regards,

  • Trying to open pdf and Adobe Reader Stops Working...Please Help

    Trying to open PDF and it keeps popping up that Adobe Reader Stopped Working.  And doesn't seem to find a solution to fix.  Has been going on for a couple days.  Can't access pdf files needed for my business.

    With Reader XI I assume you mean 11.0.0; try updating to 11.0.06.
    Also, can you open Reader by itself?  If so, try to disable Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

  • Multiple language installer for Adobe Reader

    I need a compressed multiple language installer for Adobe Reader to install with my software.  Is one available?

    When we requested a license to distribute the multi-language version of Adobe Reader with our software, we recieved the following link to a download:
    "For full installers: "
    "To download the English language version of Adobe Reader 9 with Acrobat.com in compressed .exe format, click here."
    When you click on the link, you get a single file (AdbeRdr11006_en_US.exe).  This is an installation for english only.  I am looking for a single .exe file for a multi-language installation. 
    The link you provided above is to a .zip file that must be extracted and then run.  This requires additional steps in our installation process.  We were hoping you have a single installation file to prevent these additional steps.

  • Installation of Adobe Reader XI using customization tool but looking to put two check marks

    Hi guys,
    Installation of Adobe Reader XI using customization tool but looking to put two check marks in the signature bottom two options
    called Validating Signatures and Validating Certified Documents.
    Can't find it in the customization tool and don't want to change this on 650 workstations.
    If I could change a registry key or change it in the installation it would help alot.
    Thanks for your help!!!

    I am posting this reply AGAIN
    My first reply was empty because i responded to the email I received saying this thread (is that the right terminology?) was updated. Obviously that email didn't get added, just a blank line....
    Then I replied to this thread directly on Friday and that seems to have disappeared. Maybe I just don't know how to use a computer? Better sell the technology company I own LOL.
    Ok so it seems the screen is normal, (not maximized). When I unlock and drop my start bar to one row, then the top of the screen pops down to inside my visible monitor space and it is not maximized. This allows me to drag it to another monitor and then maximize it there, then put my start bar back and relock it. This is the only way I can move the window, if I don't shrink my start bar, then I have zero access to the top bars of the document!
    Currently I can not reproduce the problem ( I might have temporarily fixed it with my start bar reducing and then moving documents), so maybe it is permanently fixed....
    Maybe a reboot will bring the problem back... It has been intermittent for about 6 months.

  • Firefox blocks installation of Adobe reader.

    Firefox is blocking installation of adobie reader
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I tried to install adobe reader.

    The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.
    See [[How do I edit options to add Adobe to the list of allowed sites]]

  • Offline installation of Adobe Reader & Flash

    We just spent the weekend at work running Windows update, office update and updating Java, Adobe Flash and Adobe Reader on all machines.
    In the interest of not going insane and doing it again ever, I would like to create an auto update script for everything.
    I am working on WSUS for the windows and office updates and have Java sorted, but I cant find any info on doing offline installs for Reader and Flash?
    Can anyone tell me:
    1) Where can I download an offline installation of both Flash & Reader
    2) Where I can find info for command line installation/uninstallation.
    thanks

  • How do I resume an interrupted installation of Adobe reader 11.0.02?

    I inadvertently interrupted the installation of this reader by shutting down the browser.  The installation progress bar failed to advance for several minutes at which point I checked the task manager to see if there was any processing related to the installation.  There was none, so I stopped the installation process.  I tried to reinstall the reader, the installation begun and seemed to be proceeding normally, but then I got a message that the installation had been interrrupted with Error 150210?  The installation was dead in the water.  A third attempt yielded the same results.  Any ideas on how to proceed?

    Your mention of Task Manager leads me to believe that you are on Windows.
    Download and run the Acroab Removal Tool http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html - note that this tool will also remove Acrobat if you have it installed.
    Next download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • Adobe Reader stop while scrolling

    Hey and hello,
    i don't know it is the right Fourm. There is an problem with an pdf file on Acrobat Reader 9 running on Vista and XP. I create an PDF document with Adobe Acrobat Standard with simple properties. When i start reading the pdf file on Mac OS Preview there is no problem, but when i start reading it with Acrobat Reader (on XP or Vista) there is one page where stop the scrolling process, after a while it's going on. But the stop is always on the same page.
    I try to delete this special page and everthing is okay, it is strange. because there is only Text on the page. I don't know what can i do to find out the error.
    Any Ideas?
    Regards
    René

    I had the same issue and this post was the first result on Google. After seeing no replies I immediately gave up searching and instead dropped into Adobe Reader's View menu and started tinkering.
    SOLUTION:
    It turns out Adobe Reader changes some settings on installation if it detects certain hardware (eg. a touchscreen). In this case the offending option is 'Touch Mode.' To get to the option (in Adobe Reader Xl v11.0.07 on Windows 7) go to 'View'->'Show/Hide'->'Toolbar Items' and click on 'Touch Mode.' There's a checkbox next to it that is always checked on my system but clicking it does seem to toggle a vertical scrollbar in the bookmarks pane.
    I have no idea why someone at Adobe decided it would be a good idea to disable the scrollbar at all, ever. It makes it impossible to navigate large PDFs like technical manuals and there's no notice at all to the user that settings have been "optimized" for a touch interface.
    It would be nice of the program to ask before doing in the future. But instead the distinctions between malware and products like Adboe Reader (with all its many issues, vulnerabilities and shady behind-the-scenes operations) continues to blur year after year. I hope this helps someone else having the same issue and maybe someone from Adobe might read this and take my advice to heart.

  • Installation of Adobe Reader DC

    I have just been forced to install Adobe Reader DC version from your website in order to complete a UK government form.
    As part of the installation it installed McAfee - I was not aware that this was going to happen (in the small print...?)
    PLEASE STOP PACKAGING YOUR PRODUCTS TOGETHER. THIS IS REALLY BAD FORM, AND WILL CERTAINY ERR ME AWAY FROM USING/RECOMMENDING ADOBE PRODUCTS IN FUTURE.

    It's not exactly "small print"...
    Also, you can download the offline installer, which is not bundled with any 3rd-party software, and which download link is posted several dozen times every day in this forum.
