Has anyone used a commnad that will uninstall older versions of Adobe reader and install the version 9? There is a script that will do this for an uninstall of reader 9 and an install of reader x – I have tried working the command to uninstall older than 9 and reinstall 9 – no luck

[...] Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 Silent Install – still my most popular post for the year despite being over 18 months old now. I expect this to start dying off soon though. It would be nice to see something Exchange Server related at the top of the list next year. [...]

Useful instructions. Thank you.

One small change: when installing version 9.1, I found the installation files in
C:\Documents and Settings\username\AppData\Adobe\Reader 9.1\Setup Files

Hi Scott, I haven’t specifically tested this with version 9 but in my experience Acrobat Reader installers will upgrade from the previous version of the program if its already installed. Older ones however usually need manual removal.

You could build this into your install script by detecting earlier versions and executing their various uninstall command strings before installing v9. Some example uninstall strings are found here: http://www.appdeploy.com

Anyone know how to auto remove all versions of Adobe reader, or is there a switch when installing the msi file with mst file, to auto grade what version they have on there system?
