Setup has detected . . .

[Ken Poshedly]

Hey Tom,

At this time, I have not yet re-installed FM10 and still canNOT reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro without getting that damn popup.

And remember, after clicking "OK" on the ("Setup has detected ...") popup window, the main Acrobat setup window returns to present only a "Finish" button and when you click on it, the whole thing closes.

No choices are presented at any time as to whether you want to install this or that.

And I'm well-aware of what you said about FM pdf printing so that's not an issue.

Thanks for the reply and let me know of any other ideas.

And he has helped out at various times in the past, so I trust his opinion.

 a registry listing or something that I should edit? And if so, where and how?
