  I am using Acrobat Reader DC. I used to be able to open .pdf attachments to an e-mail by clicking twice on the attachment. Since a few days it doesn't work like that.  I get a message error "Acrobat could not connect to a DDE server. I discovered a way around - I have to listen to samples and then double-click on before its opening. It's heavy. Can I avoid it? How can I just double click again?

  My BIG problem is with .pdf files already in my computer. Worse - these .pdf files open at all.

• "Fatal Error: Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server.

  Problem: Acrobat generates the following error ' Fatal Error: Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server "

  SCENARIO #1
  (1) if I double click on a single PDF file, the file opens without any problem
  (2) if I double click on a second PDF file, I get ' Fatal Error: Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server.
  (3) if I double click on a third file I also get ""Fatal Error: Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server " and so on..."
  (4) if I completely close Adobe Reader, I can open and then again all a single PDF file
  (5) basically I can have only one PDF file open at any time
  (6) if I reboot my system, I can open multiple PDFs even once without any problems, but after leaving my system on without restarting the computer for a while (possibly after a whole day) the question back again and I have to restart once again to solve the problem. Very annoying.

  SCENARIO #2
  (1) I Double click on a single PDF file, the file opens
  (2) I click file = > open select one or more PDF files and have no problem open as many PDF files I want.
  (3) I guess I can use this as a workaround but I find that it is not also practice that double-click several files in Windows Explorer.

  
  Here's what I've tried so far vain

  Uninstall/reinstall of Adobe Reader 9.1
  -uninstall Adobe Reader 9.1 and Adobe Reader 8 installation
  -Remove the checkmark next to "USE DDE" in the Windows Explorer File Types section
  (In Windows Explorer, click on tools = > Folder Options = > Types of files = > PDF = > advanced = > open = > change = > use DDE)

  
  -Set Windows Services Network DDE DSDM Network DDE services automatic and verified that they are both started

  I'm on a corporate network, if that helps

  Appreciate any suggestions

  What are the properties of the remote procedure call, the workstation service that gives this error?

  I had success with the "connect as" to "Local System account" with the "allow service to interact with desktop" checked.

  Hi timr22708473,

  Acrobat 7 is really an old version of acrobat & might not be compatible with your system configuration to features may or may not work.

  This is the reason why Adobe recommends always using the application in a consistent environment.

• Fatal error that acrobat was unable to connect to a dde Server

  Acrobat Reader DC does not start in Windows 10 build 14915

  Launch Acrobat Reader DC in the start menu. After a long wait, this message appears:

  ---------------------------

  Fatal error

  ---------------------------

  Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server.

  ---------------------------

  Ok

  ---------------------------

  Even with a double click on a PDF in the file Explorer. Drive worked fine in Windows 10 build 14905 this afternoon before I updated.

  What to do apart from push to 14905?

  As a work around, I did the Microsoft program "Reader", the default value for the pdf files they open fine in the drive.

  Thank you.

• Windows 10 fatal error: Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server

  Today I couldn't open a pdf document by double-clicking on it in Windows Explorer. Apparently, nothing happened. Finally, I opened right click and chose with... Chrome. It worked. The default value is Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. I found later, after the closure of the browser widow, dialog windows three under. Said dialog boxes "fatal error / Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server.»

  When double checking so that writing this post, I found that by double clicking on a PDF document opens on board - and that works too. Right-click, context menu's 'Open' in the top of the page and more restraint, 'Open with->' and Adobe Acrobat Reader ms at the top of the submenu.
  I just tried the Adobe Acrobat Reader DC selection and nothing I happening. I reduced all the windows one by one to see if a dialogue window appears, but no.

  Googling the error message turned up a suggestion to set a registry entry, but the entry was already the suggested value: HKCR\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application: default: REG_SZ: AcroViewR10,.
  
  

  What type of server Acrobat tries to connect with? How to? Acrobat Connect to the Explorer window for the file name?
  With no information to go, how you can help out us, other than the nuclear option: reinstall everything?

  Thank you

  In fact, Acrobat 7 completely and correctly will not install on any version of Windows beyond 32-bit Windows XP!

  Version of Acrobat or beyond is necessary for Vista Acrobat 8.1.
