What works
It installs, though the installer will erase all the files before installation is completed. The work around is that before exiting the installation, copy the files at /Program Files/Adobe/Reader to a temporary directory then restore it after the installation program exits. Acrobat Reader DC will open non-Javascript PDF files. Copies of files can be saved.
What does not
Attempt to open a Javascript PDF file causes the program to crash. Attempt to use many menu links will cause AcroReader to freeze or crash. Except for "About" none of the help/information menu links seem to work.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Conversions to Word/Excel. Online features

Additional Comments
If install fails, download and run AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2015.exe or install a different version of Acrobat DC (eg, 11.0.0 instead of 11.0.10). A different version may be the only recovery if an Error code 150202 appears.

Submitting this installation guide for someone new to wine:
This is the only software that allows users to properly fill out XFA PDF forms. These forms are used by a lot of government agencies and other organizations. You cannot use the mobile versions of Adobe Reader to fill these forms either. You need a windows or Mac version to do this.
On Linux installing the windows Version of Adobe reader on wine allows you to get this ability.
