Update a network image with the latest version of DWF Viewer

Do you want the latest version of Autodesk DWF Viewer installed with AutoCAD or any other installation.
Here is one tip:
If you have a network image of let's say AutoCAD locate this file:
\AdminImage\support\aev\DWFViewerSetup.exe
Download the latest version of the DWF Viewer and replace it.
Make sure that these rows are in the setup.ini file (or the ini that you use):
[VIEWER]
PRODUCT_NAME=Autodesk DWF Viewer
INSTALL_CMD=support\aev\DWFViewerSetup.exe
INSTALL_CMD_ARGS=/u2 /q2
INSTALL_IGNORE_FAILURE=YES

If it's not there you can add it.

Update:
You also have to edit the row starting with SETUP_PRODUCT_NAMES= so it includes VIEWER

If you don't want the viewer to be installed you can remove it from the ini file as well.
