Can't make ADE 2.0 my default epub reader

When I installed ADE 2.0 I ticked the box to make it my default epub reader, but it did not.  The old epub reader I used was still listed in the Panel by default, and when I try to manually change the default value for ADE, Windows can't find it.  Even when I choose Browse and click to access ADE 2.0 and tell him to open in the player by default, nothing happens - Windows does not recognize it as a drive.  I even tried to uninstall my old epub reader, and then the epub files will not open at all because WIndows (7 incidentally) is not find ADE epub reader optional.  I had no such problem with 1.7.  Any ideas (or even a way back to 1.7 if possible)?

Thank you!

You can install v2.0 and v1.7.2 simultaneously if you wish.

This occasional inability of Windows to associate file types with ADE is a more particular and irritating Windows bug.

You could try a third-party app like Types http://izt.name/apps/types/ and see if that helps.

Not so convenient, but useful for emergency cases: you can always open files .epub from ADE with ctrl-O and .acsm file by drag drop from Explorer to ADE.

There are a lot of bugs in ADE2.0.  Try to replace ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.

Version 1.7.2, is a little hard to find, available on the website of Adobe for Windows and for Mac.
