How can I easily deploy Adobe Acrobat without Creative Cloud?

I'm really struggling to deploy Adobe Acrobat. I've tried using the enterprise installer, but it doesn't support auto-updates. Then I used the admin portal package, which ends up installing Creative Cloud, and that's not what I want. I'm looking for a way to deploy Adobe Acrobat that is self-updating, without any Creative Cloud involvement. Is there a straightforward method to accomplish this using Intune?

I don't think there's a version of Adobe Acrobat available on the MS App Store. If there is, you might be able to deploy it using PowerShell, which could make things easier for you. Worth checking out!

You should consider using the Customization Wizard. It allows you to install Acrobat without Creative Cloud, and it supports auto-updates. Plus, it lets users upgrade by signing in with a Standard or Pro license without forcing a login every time. Here's the link: [Customization Wizard](https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Wizard/index.html).

Honestly, deploying Adobe has never been straightforward. Have you looked into the new Acrobat engine in Edge? A lot of people are skipping standalone Acrobat now.
