Title: Adobe Reader Reboot for Simple Patching
Post by: Eddie78701 on August 26, 2022, 05:30:57 PM
I am new to SCCM and Patch My PC and just getting started with an eval license after we fired the prior company that provided a standalone product...  I am baffled why patching Reader would trigger a reboot.  I have never, ever had a need to reboot this after a simple patch.  If I install outside of SCCM there is no prompt to reboot from the app.  Am I overlooking some setting that needs to be set to stop this behavior?

Just getting started on this myself.  If you go to updates in the PMPC console, right click on the Adobe Reader product you're having issues with and choose "Show package info", is there anything on the command-line to block the installer from rebooting?  I'm working with Intune, so it may be slightly different for SCCM.

Hi Eddie
That should not cause a reboot, there may be another process that caused it. The switches run with that can be found by looking at the show package info or looking at the Modify published updates wizard which is a look into WSUS.  https://patchmypc.com/modify-published-third-party-updates-wizard

Since I have literally booted VM, opened Reader and checked for the policy to get it patched, I don't see how another process should be triggering.  I am going to hide the notifications in SCCM since this is just plain silly.

Hey Wes, I'm running into this same issue. I had a user's machine reboot two days in a row; one from a DisplayLink update and another from an Acrobat update. Checking the command-line on the update, the reboot is supposed to be suppressed. If I want to open a support case, which specific logs would best help in this case?
