Sorry about the delay - it's been a busy December!

Yes - it is now installing Adobe Reader DC both in manual and auto/commandline mode.

Thanks
Ben

Great, thanks for looking into this Justin.

Do you know when the next update would be?

Thanks
Ben

Hi Justin

I've double checked - mine definately do not have extensions.  Other apps install when specified in the file, but ADobe Reader DC does not.

Thanks
Ben

Hi Justin

They are pretty close to original settings - I had only just downloaded the defaultapps.settings file and modified to install the one program. 

I cant seem to attach them in zip format - telling me the upload folder is full, so I'll paste contents below...

Thanks
Ben

Hi Justin

Thanks for looking into this for me.

No they are not - although they have been in the past.
If I manually select the app in the GUI, then it installs as expected.  Seems to be that the text file isn't being read correctly, or its not translating through to a 'ticked' tickbox.

Thanks
Ben

Hi

If I pre-select Acrobat Reader DC via DefaultApps.settings, it doesn't get selected once the program opens (or installed via /s switch).

I can pre-select other apps, so I know it's reading the file.

The line in defaultapps.settings is:
Adobe Acrobat DC

I've tried changing it to match the name used within the GUI 'Acrobat Reader DC' - also doesn't work.

Thanks
Ben
