If you still see the error, use the Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner tool to remove traces of any previous installation, and then reinstall Adobe Acrobat Reader or Adobe Acrobat.

This error indicates that your Acrobat/Reader installation was customized with the use of a Transforms (.MST) file. The .MST file could be missing from its original location or corrupted.

This error could also occur when downloading and updating with the Adobe Application Manager. The error can be bypassed by downloading the update separately from installing it. That is, save the updater file locally (on your computer) and then run it in a separate step.

To download and install the update, locate the latest update for Acrobat or Reader here:

After clicking Proceed to Download and then Download Now, click Save or Save As to save the file to your computer. After downloading, locate the patch file on your computer and double-click the file to run the update.
