How can we improve Adobe Reader?

Acrobat Reader for Windows and Mac: Installation

Categories

Business deployment Adobe Reader x64 with GPO (MSI)

If you're execute and patch Adobe Reader (64 bit) from MUI.exe-file and deploy the installation in ActiveDirectory with Grouppolicy (GPO) the client installation will fail with:
Error 2602. The File table entry 'snapshot_blob.bin' has no associated entry in the Media table.

These file is available in the source (Program Files 64\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\AcroCEF).

I tried to get my installation file on the same way as it works for Adobe Reader (32 bit):
.\AcroRdrDCx642300320244MUI.exe -sfxo"C:\AdobeReaderExtracted" -sfxne
msiexec /a c:\AdobeReaderExtracted\AcroPro.msi TARGETDIR="c:\AcrobatReaderDCAIP"
msiexec /a C:\AcrobatReaderDCAIP\AcroPro.msi /p C:\AdobeReaderExtracted\AcroRdrDCx64Upd2300320244MUI.msp

Please fix or tell me the right way to deploy Adobe Reader (64 bit).

Many thanks

    Hello!

    I'm having the same problem with the latest Adobe Acrobat 26.001.21367. Previous versions of Adobe Acrobat 24.x and 25.x were successfully deployed using GPO but this one refuses to cooperate.

    Had similar deployment issues with Adobe Reader 64-bit! The missing snapshot_blob.bin file is a common problem. We've automated our software deployment processes at our digital marketing agency https://leads4build.com and found that copying the AcroCEF folder manually after creating the AIP usually fixes this error. Thanks for sharing the solution!

    Adobe Reader can be improved by incorporating AI Integration to enhance document understanding, automate form recognition, and offer smarter search capabilities.

    Workaround is very simple:
    - open AcroPro.msi after slipstream with Orca
    - look at Tables - File and sort by Sequence
    - look for last entry (3864)
    - go to Tables - Media
    - change LastSequence of both files ahead the last entry under Tables - File
    - for example to 3865 & 3865

    Installation will be done without any errors.
