Adobe Reader tries to update version 11.0.09 to 11.0.06
As Adobe reader has tried several times to install the 11.0.06 version and failed (think I already had the 11.0.07 version, not sure), I completely uninstalled and installed a clean last version (11.0.09). Now, I continue to receive notifications (Adobe Reader Updater window opens) updates to version 11.0.06! Is this possible to cleanup my setup as I only receive legitimate (new versions) update notifications and stops receiving 11.0.06 "updates"?
OS: Windows 7 x 64
Very rare; It might be an older version has not been uninstalled completely and AdobeARM detects the remains of this old version.
My suggestion: uninstall Adobe Reader complete by using http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html , and then download and reinstall the latest version of http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Adobe Reader 11 Rollout - Set 'Import' certificates so that the user does not
Hello
My company, which has 1800 + users, is upgraded to Adobe Reader 10 for Adobe Reader via SCCM 2012 11.0.04. I created a package using the Adobe Customization Tool, and everything works as expected, with the exception of the security prompt that appears at first launch of import certificates. I tried to use a tweak registry to disable verification, but that doesn't seem to work, but after some thought rather security would select "Import" to the first launch, without intervention of the user, if possible.
Is this possible?
Thank you
Rich
I ended up doing this
REM move files locally
Mkdir "c:\apps\Adobe_Reader_11004."
xcopy /s /e /i "\\servername\package_source\Adobe\Reader\11.0.04\Custom Installer" "c:\apps\Adobe_Reader_11004."
REM install AR11
'c:\Apps\Adobe_Reader_11004\setup.exe '.
REM move files of certificates to prevent importation popup on first launch
xcopy /s /e /i "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\Security\*.acrodata" C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0\Security"\ «»
And the popup did not come to the top for the first two criteria. I'll wrap up in SCCM and try again, but I think it's good to go. Changes to the registry Clreaed out of my custom install since it was garbage.

I have a late 2009 iMac. When I tried to upgrade to El Capitan. He said that the CHIP shows the h/d is a failure and can not be updated. I have install an external withEl of h/d Cap but it is very slow. the h/d is USB 3 but the iMac's USB 2. the h/d is only 5400 RPM. a 7200 RPM 7 / would accelerate the iMac?
No, because the limiting factor is the computer is USB 2.0, which is how it connects any external drive apart the external drive. As USB 2.0 is much slower, there is no real advantage to a 7200 RPM drive. What you need is a Firewire enclosure that supports FW800 which is much faster than USB 2.0.

I can't open the PDF with Adobe Reader XI... get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes. Is it a question of Adobe, Microsoft problem or security issue?
Since you talk about Microsoft, I guess you're on Windows.
Can you open Reader by itself? If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].

Original title: update\update.exe message is not a valid file when tried to install IE8 KB2744842 patch
I got this virus live Platinum security. I think about Microsoft bulletin as CVE - 2012 - 4969 Backdoor: Win 32/Poison.BR supposedly he is gone now with PC Tools Spyware Doctor with antivirus. I can no longer get critical updates to www.update.microsoft.com and cannot go there and get either them. I have automatic updates turn on my computer, but when I go to the update site, it asks me to turn on the automatic updates, but doesn't change from red to green. If I click on the express, it gives me a message there is a problem with the web page. I have read some solutions and typed in will looking for three files like BIT and update, but the only one listed was the workstation. I did some research and found the servers to Windows IE8 patch KB2744842 and downloaded and when I tried to install it, he unpacked himself and then ran, and then I got the message saying that update\update is not a valid Win 32 application. I searched this file and found it was created on 20/09/2012, the same day I had the terrible malware and under properties, it is called configuration of Windows Service Pack, the version of the 6.3.0004.1 built by: dnsrv, internal name update.exe, English, original name: update.exe on my computer, it is C:\\bb5d6cfc84bf6a13dde9b006.update
Try to solve this problem cost me $230 plus the cost of PCTools Spyware. I called a number to the www.spywarehelpcenter.com to support when I was having trouble installing the PCTools in safemode and said Malwarebytes Pro was much better and used by companies and he said he gave me $150 off so it cost me one once charge $50 and there is no renewal and sold me a one year $ 180 contract to remove the virus and the development of my computer. He had insisted on it going remotely and showed me all these errors. I think that I made a mistake to trust him. Two technicians have worked on my computer remotely on two different days without a firewall and installed Malwarebytes Pro three times because it kept to give a message of corruption, and it is that when I pointed out to them there is no firewall that was added by a sort of sharedaccess.reg problem is I can't get and install the critical updates. I trust a third time to do things? They have deleted quite a few programs. I think that maybe the problem is that they were not aware of the fixit patch and the full patch to IE8. I run Windows XP Professional and probably should upgrade to Windows 7 in the near future.
I should add that a few days before that happened, I noticed that if I went in sysedit, the config.sys and autoexec.bat files windows were empty. My computer has always competed, but it seemed very slowly. I could not find a solution for this and read that you don't really need these files. I have the original operating system disk and has been reading how to install it, but only for the repair by pressing 'r' and let it repair missing files. So I don't know what to do. Any advice? I am so tired of this, but still have hope to operate correctly.
Hi Catnip009,
Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:
Method 1: I suggest you to download and make a bootable CD or USB to Windows Defender in offline mode, and then run the tool.
For more information, see the following articles:
