Transform (.mst) file basics¶

When you save a project, the Wizard creates an MST file that contains most of your customizations. As shown in the examples below, you simply chain the the install with any needed updates (.msp) and the transform file (.mst). However, keep in mind the following rules:

  • Once an MST is applied during an install, another MST can't be used later during an update (say, to change one setting).

  • The way the Windows Installer Technology works is that during an update or repair, the installer references the MST file that the installation used when it was first installed.

  • The only way to use a different MST is to uninstall the product and then reinstall with a new MST file.

  • Acrobat installers support multiple transforms. A semi colon-separated list of transforms can be applied during installation. For details, see the Microsoft documentation.

The Wizard works with MSI files. If you've downloaded an EXE file, expand it as described below to obtain an MSI and other needed files.

  2. In the Open dialog box, browse to find the file location, and then select the transform file name.

Saving a project¶

When you are finished customizing the installer, save your settings by choosing File > Save (or press CTRL+S). The Wizard saves your customizations in a transform (.mst) file and updates the project (.msi) file and setup.ini file in the same directory.

  • If the setup.ini file is not located in the same directory as the project file, you will see an error message when you try to save the file. But if the transform file is not located in the same directory as the project file, the Wizard places a copy in the same directory as the .msi file.

  • If the setup.ini file is not located in the same directory as the project file, you will see a message indicating that you cannot save the project (.msi) file.

Pre deployment file verification¶

How To Install Adobe Acrobat Dc Crack

As part of the customization process, the Wizard modifies three files which must be located in the same directory:

  • Project file (.msi): The installer file for your application.

  • Transform file (.mst): Contains your modifications to the installer as well as any separate files. The Wizard creates or updates a transform file every time you save an .msi file.

  • Setup.ini file: Contains initialization data for the installer. Some Adobe and MSI properties are written to this file. You can manually edit this file to add more properties and features. For details, see the Enterprise Administration Guide.

Reset installation settings¶

To restore an edited package to its default settings:

  1. Choose File > Reset Package to Adobe default.

  2. Choose Yes to confirm.

Multiple installations¶

If you have multiple installation scenarios in your organization, you can specify multiple sets of installation settings in separate transform files. You do not need to create and store a complete package for each scenario. Instead, you can create a standard package and store multiple transform files in a separate directory. When you are ready to run an installation, open the project file, and load the transform file containing the installation settings you want to use.
