Do not open in Adobe Reader as they did also PDF files

All PDFs have begun to open with word, all of a sudden, instead of convert to Adobe Reader. How to fix? I have HP Pavilion dv5, Windows 7

Hello

All files or just the pdf files? If only pdf files simply proceed as follows:

  • Right click on a file
  • Click on properties
  • Click on change
  • Select Adobe Reader from the list
  • Always check...
  • Click ok/apply

Kind regards.

    This information applies to Windows Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Internet Explorer 8.

    When you use Internet Explorer to download a file from Internet, you are usually asked where you want to store the file. If you specify where you want the file to be stored, Internet Explorer try normally put a file in the appropriate place. For example, documents and Web pages are normally saved in the Documents folder, music music files in the folder, and the images and graphics are saved in the pictures folder. In Internet Explorer 7, which could potentially harmful, such as executable programs, files are saved in the folder of the first temporary Internet files, and then copied in the folder you specified. Programs and various downloads are also sometimes saved to the downloads folder. Here are some tips on searching for files, that you downloaded.

    If you download a file, and the save file dialog box appears, it is best to specify the folder in which you want to save the file to. This will save time later. If you save multiple files, Windows will normally remember the last folder you have saved, if you do not have to specify the folder again.

  • Links in the PDF are not open in Adobe Reader

    I created a PDF file from Adobe Acrobat that has links that open external web pages that works perfectly in Adobe Acrobat, but when the PDF file is opened in Adobe Reader, nothing happens when you click on links on. The cursor changes and the URL is displayed when hovering above, but when clicked on nothing happens. Now I tried the CTRL key and change various parameters "Trust Manager" in Preferences, but nothing seems to work. Do I need to save the PDF in a different format to allow links to be opened in Adobe Reader?

    It seems that there is a problem with the RdrCEF.exe file. When you rename the file solves the problem.

  • Cannot open the Adobe reader portfolios because of the flash is not installed

    Flash: 12.0

    Adobe Reader: 11.05

    OS: Windows 8.1

    Browser: IE 11

    Hello

    at the launch of a PDF file that is classified as a portfolio, I get the error that seems to need flash to be installed below.

    error1.JPG

    two things im kind of observation:

    • because she was running windows 8.1 Flash is now installed via Microsoft. I can't find a valid update for windows 8.1 of the adobe site can find windows 8, but nothing for windows 8.1
    • Since Flash player plugin is no longer ships with Adobe Reader, I need to install separately, but I can not because of point 1.

    If I install the windows version 8 of the flash on the machine, I can open the PDF file, no problem but by doiing this im not sure what file I could be more fbaulous and cause more specific questions to the bottom of the track.

    Read somewhere that the NPSWF64_12_0_0_70.dll is what adobe reader would use. Copy the file to the desired location, and register the dll seems doing nothing that I get the same error.

    My question is how can I get the Flash Plugin from Adobe reader to work so that I can open the PDF portfolio?

    Windows 8.x only comes with the Flash Player ActiveX (for Internet Explorer); You must install the plugin manually from http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe

  • How to automate so that pdf is always open in Adobe Reader ms in Windows 10

    Hello

    I need your expertise to solve the problem that I am facing currently. In this discussion, I'll write you what my needs are, how I use it and what problems are to come.

    My requirement-> In my organization, my client has a specific requirement that after they installed "Adobe Acrobat Reader DC", any pdf file should be opened in Adobe Reader DC editor only. For Windows 7, there is no problem. We have Adobe Reader DC scripted to open all PDFs in MS only, but for Windows 10, these mechanism were not working. In Windows 10, all pdf files open in Microsoft Edge by default. Now the user may have the ability to change default pdf file association (Control Panel-> set default Program Association) so that it will only open in Adobe Reader MS, but we are not allowed to think about this scenario because as a guy Packer SCCM deployment and Application, I need to automate everything. So, the scenario will be after you have installed Adobe Reader DC, opens in DC only.

    Best regards - I downloaded Adobe Customization Wizard 11 and from there also, I chose to make the default player. In WIndows 7, it works fine but the problem is in Windows 10.

    How do I use--> I have studied and found that in the registry location - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf. If you delete it. PDF key, so for that particular user, the Microsoft association Edge breaks and after that, you enter this value

    AcroExch.Document.DC = 0 (DWORD) under 'HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\OpenWithProgids' will solve the problem.

    But the question was to come because, under this key .pdf, there is a registry subkey under the name of "UserChoice" which cannot be changed by default. Yes, it sounds strange, but it is true that although user still HKCU don't have permission to change the key "UserChoice". And that's why, I'm not able to delete the entire registry key '.pdf '.

    But when I checked manually unless give you permission for this key ".pdf" and grant all permissions for the group "Domain users" and go to advanced and check the box 'Replace all entries authorization child object with entries permissions inheritable this object', then you will be able to remove all of the key ".pdf". I checked this manually and it works and it also so open any pdf in the DC Editor. And this is the reason why I use the SetACL.exe file.

    How do I use file-> SetACL.exe I created an empty file msi (Windows Installer) and I called this SetACL.exe in the Active configuration. I created a custom action with condition "NOT DELETE" so that this custom action will run for each user for the first time.

    The vbscript code that I wrote inside the Custom Action is.

    Set WshShell = CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")

    Set fso = CreateObject ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

    SourceDir = Left (wscript. ScriptFullName, Instrrev (wscript. ScriptFullName, '-'))

    Path=WshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%ALLUSERSPROFILE%") "

    path = path & "\DC\SetACL32.exe".

    If fso. FileExists (path) then

    CmdLine1 = path, Chr (34) & Chr (34) & "-on" & Chr (34) & "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf" & Chr (34) & "- ot reg - actn ace - ace" & Chr (34) & "n: Users; p:full"& Chr (34) &" setprot - actn-op "& Chr (34) &"dacl:np"& Chr (34) & ' - clear actn - clr" & Chr (34) & "dacl" & Chr (34) & "rstchldrn - rst - actn" & Chr (34) & "dacl" & Chr (34)

    WshShell.Run cmdline1, 0, True

    CmdLine2 = "reg delete" & Chr (34) & "/" f "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\UserChoice" & Chr (34)

    cmdline3 = "reg delete" & Chr (34) & "/" f "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\OpenWithProgids" & Chr (34)

    cmdline4 = "reg delete" & Chr (34) & "/" f "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\OpenWithList" & Chr (34)

    cmdline5 = "reg delete" & Chr (34) & "/" f "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf" & Chr (34)

    WshShell.Run cmdline2, 0, True

    WshShell.Run cmdline3, 0, True

    WshShell.Run cmdline4, 0, True

    WshShell.Run cmdline5, 0, True

    End If

    Now manually this script works fine but when I use it through MSI, it doesn't quite work.

    Please help me. Y at - it another way to automate so that the PDF file opens in Adobe Reader ms.

    Kind regards

  • PDF file generated from Reporting SERVICES hangs when opened in Adobe reader 11 and saved as with "optimized for fast web view."

    Large pdf (over 1000 pages) generated files form SSRS crashes when opened in Adobe reader 11 and saved as with "Optimized for fast web view" activated. This saves fine with disabling this option. However, our customers are not ready to accept this solution because they do not want to change any settings. Please suggest if we should create a ticket with microsoft for SSRS allow the generation of pdf quick display of Web pages or is it an option in Adobe to fix this problem without changing the settings.

    The SSRS file has Fast Web View: 'No' and that's how Microsoft SSRS generates these files.

    Thank you for the complete maxwyss response

    As you have indicated, the PDF SSRS seems to have some elements that are quite similar to be supported for fast web view.

    We asked customers to disable the fast web view, but the customer is big enough to make a change individually on their machines and so were looking for a solution.

    I saw in several forums and a few discussions here as well as disable the fast web view option works for pdf fails.

    Which was just wondering if its known that multiple PDFs genarted by third parties may have problems with the optimization, the Save as optimized for fast web view could be disabled by default installation of acrobat reader rather than be enabled by default

    Thanks again for the reply!

    Hello JohnDeCastro,

    Thank you for posting.

    Ppl repeatedly face problems when opening. EXE files.

    • The EXE file opens in Notepad.
    • EXE file opens in a few other installed programs.
    • Windows displays the 'Open with' dialog box to select the program.
    • Windows displays the error message "Windows cannot find .exe file. Make sure you typed the name correctly.

    Most of the time it happens when you accidentally replace. Type of exe to Folder Options settings. Sometimes, it can happen due to the virus.

    In any case no need to worry. Here's a solution that will fix this annoying problem:

    1. open RUN command prompt by typing the command in the dialog box.

    2 provide now following command:

    cd\windows

    3 it will activate the Windows folder. Now provide following command to open the Registry Editor:

    Regedit

    4 now goto following key:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe

    In the right pane, change the value of default elements exefile key

    5 now goto:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command

    In the right pane, change the value of the default key to:

    "%1" %*

    6 that's it. Now, quit the registry editor and restart your Windows. Now you should be able to open EXE files without any problem.

    Please let me know if this helps you.

  • executable files (.exe files) are opened in Adobe reader.

    • My friend, I don't understand how he did it, changed the .exe on its computer files settings. He says, click with the right button on a file .exe, selected option «openwith...» "and chose the adobe reader software. Now all .exe files are being opened on the adobe reader, including the filesystem as guest, paint, calculator, browsers, uninstaller etc. Now, we can not even uninstall the adobe reader software, since even the unistaller is an exe file and will open in adobe reader. System Restore does not work. What can I do to help him?

    Hi Christophe,

    If you can access the internet somehow, if you are using Vista, go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and scroll to the EXE and click or double-click it to run the program to restore EXE file associations. Once done, do the same for LNK entry. That should restore your programs. If you are using Windows 7, go to http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html . If you are using XP, go to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm.

    If no internet access, copy the appropriate reg entries to a flash drive on another computer, transfer to Office the 'bad' computer to and run them from there to make the changes.  Reboot and you should be good to go.

    If it still does not help, try the following guide to our Member Brian M - which shows four methods that can be used to fix the Windows file associations.

    Guide: http://www.selectrealsecurity.com/fix-programs

    I hope this helps.
