  • Cannot open PDF files in Windows Live Mail.

    I recently got a new computer running Windows 7.  I have Windows Live Mail and have tried to open the 'pdf' files attached to e-mails.  When I try to open them I get an error message.  I downloaded the file in the file management section for Adobe and Adobe.  How to open a PDF file without first having to save it on my computer?

    HURT SO BAD!  I had the same problem - I tried the security options in Internet Explorer and Adobe, also the download of unassociate.exe that was put in place for users of Vista and used on the extension pdf without result.  IF YOU USE IT ON THE PDF AND PDFXML extensions, then open Adobe reader and click Help, repair drive installation it works!

    Obviously, you cannot run your life by saving just to open attachments... Adobe has no answers on their site and find the file unassoc.exe on this Microsoft forum was the closest, I arrived to find an answer. When I tried the process a second time, I saw the PDFXML extension just below the PDF extension and took a shot at it.

    Someone at Microsoft needs this fix to make accessible to all the users of Windows 7. I spent 3 hours on the phone with HP support, he tried the unassoc.exe and it did not work for him. I contact them to let them know about this - they put me on the phone with a Manager and he told me they had literally hundreds of phone calls about this.

    Cannot open pdf files. "Acrobat cannot send a DDE command '.

    Thank you John. The problem has been resolved. I'm sure this has to do with changes of microsoft with one of their updates since I subscribe to Office 365. Somehow my Acrobat version 10 a program started working again after a week of being disabled. I use windows 8.1 and dread of having to go through windows 10 soon.

    When I run the defrag I get a message that says "MMC cannot open the file c:\WINDOWS\system\dfrg.msc. It is perhaps because the file does not exist, is not the MMC, or was created by a later version of MMC.

  • Windows 10 - cannot open pdf files in MS Reader

    Hello, I have recently updated my phone company to 10 Windows in Windows 7. I have been using Acrobat Reader XI without problems. Since I was walking, opening PDF files always ends without response. After you open the PDF, he held only icon for a few seconds and then nothing (not even a blink of a new window / frame). I already tried several methods:

    • Uninstalling XI player associated with the application of advanced uninstaller. Put it back, with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
    • Complete uninstall of the CD with AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2015 player. Then reinstall > unsuccessful
    • I also tried the CD Player update to the latest version, and then using to repair mechanism (help > repair installation) > same result

    When I open the CD (shortcut or *.exe) directly, it runs normally and it allows me to open probably almost any PDF file as in the past. But if I trie to open any PDF file, it doesn't do anything. After consulting the table of processes through the Task Manager, I discovered that there are two processes that are running in the background "Adobe Acrobat Reader (32-bit) DC". It is + 2 after trying to open another PDF file / CD player.

    I also had this same problem on different machines. This is quite annoying, because I don't want to use the native Windows player...

    My current status:

    HP ZBook 15, i7-4800MQ, 16 GB of RAM

    MS Windows 10 Pro (64-bit)

    Adobe Acrobat Reader DC - Czech (15.008.20082)

  • Cannot open PDF files on Web sites, or when it is attached to the email!

    Hello
    My computer is running Vista and I had this problem for the last 2 years! I can only receive the PDF sent by one of the companies I work for. I can't open most PDF files sent by attachment or all the files on Web sites. I have Adobe 9 and Foxit Reader and it does not work with either. I tried to re - install Adobe and still no luck. With Foxit Reader that I can manage to open the PDF files sent from the company I mentioned earlier, but that's all. I would really appreciate some help... Thank you very much! :) x

    Try this: uninstall all the software that you have to display the PDF documents. Then try to open a PDF file. You should receive a message that "Windows cannot open this file". If you get the message that the file is "corrupt" or "not supported" means that you have another program or display of PDF files.
    Once you receive a message that "Windows cannot open this file" download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader (9.3).

  • Windows 2k8R2 - receiving error when you connect (MMC cannot open the file: C:\Windows\system32\ServerManager.msc)

    MMC cannot open the file:
    C:\Windows\system32\ServerManager.msc
    It is perhaps because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you don't have sufficient access to the file.

  • Cannot open dat files in windows 7

    the operating system is windows 7 premium. Since its purchase, there has been no changes to the computer. This problem has occurred since the first day. We cannot open certain file extensions on the attachments sent to us, for most of the dat files. I searched on the net for most of the forums help ms and tried the recommended solutions, to no avail. This includes saving the file, try opening with another program or try to display the file extension. Is there a solution or a fix for this problem?

    Thanks for your help

    These files are likely to senders using Outlook and format RTF owner of the bureau, which is unable to interpret other e-mail clients.  You must either install Outlook, or even to tell shippers to use plain text or HTML format messages, but not those in the RTF format as all attachments and such parts are not readable by other beneficiaries who do not have Outlook.
