patch package could not be opened. Verify that patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to vefiry that this is a windows installer patch package.

hmm, try and do it in safe mode, as a last resort i would delete all the adobe files and remove it from the registry and then try to install it again, but thats a last resort, im sure there is an easier fix that is less risky
