Remove Adobe CS5 and then install Adobe CS5.5 Upgrade

Hi,

We are planning for upgrading few users to Adobe CS5.5 from Adobe CS5. We have to remove Adobe CS5 before installing Adobe CS5.5.We have Adobe CS5.5 package created with AAMEE 2.1. Adobe CS5.5 package works fine with Casper Policy and Imaging. We have to push the CS5.5 to the users with CS5.

The policy should remove Remove Adobe CS5(including Acrobat9) first and then Install Adobe CS5.5. Is there anyway to automate the CS5 uninstall through ARD or Casper?

Does anyone has suggestions or recommendations on upgrading CS5 to CS5.5?

Thanks & Regards,
Karthikeyan M

Don't forget that AAMEE creates an uninstaller along with the installer.

You can add the CS5 uninstaller .pkg to Casper and run that prior to
running the CS 5.5 installer.

I haven't tested this yet but it's what I'd try first.
