I have 10 windows and want to drive DC my default PDF reader. Even if I put it by default, Windows insists on the use of E (new browser) when I try to open a .pdf file. How can I force Windows to accept the default player?
The caption explains my problem, that started after the recent update of Windows 10. Even if the reader asks if I want to make the default value, and even if I click on Yes and then agree that drive to make changes to my computer (probably the registry), the next time I try to open a .pdf file comes from the browser. In addition, when I open the drive I can't find a way to open a file in it, which leaves me stuck with the browser rather than drive for all the .pdf files. What can I do?
Hi robertb98559829,
If in the case where it does not drive as default value when the application of the parameters of the application, then we need to change the default OS property values.
Please, try the following:
Close the player or any other application using the PDF
Go to control panel > default programs > associate a type of file or Protocol with a program
Since scrolling list file Type down to the type of PDF file.
Click on it to select it.
Click the Change program button at the top right
On the next dialog box, select Adobe Acrobat Reader and click OK
Then close
Now, try to open a PDF by double clicking on it.
I would like to know if it works.

To combine PDF files, how can I keep security to prohibit printing and text entry?
To combine PDF files, how can I keep security to prohibit printing and text entry? In Windows Explorer, I highlight the individual PDF files, right click and choose "combine with Adobe Acrobat. I'm done and get my single file with all the PDF pages included, but nowhere I can't find where them prohibit printing of the any PDF combined or refusing to be seized of the text... as I'm able to do when I export to PDF from InDesign.
It's really a question of Acrobat, but in any case the answer is you open the file in Acrobat and go to properties (Ctrl + D), and then click the Security tab.

Please help me - enough to edit a pdf file - how can it be done? Thanks - John
No way with just the free reader. Can be done to some extent in Acrobat. Major changes, it is better to do them in the original file (the one which the PDF has been made), producing a new PDF file when you are finished.

If you try to access a document from someone from another site, and you get an access denied message, it is probably because you are not supposed to be able to acquire the file without getting several access permissions you have right now.

PDF files: How can you save a file so that you can select and copy some text?
I have some difficulty to save PDF files in photoshop.
I saved a handful of PDF files, but I am only able to select and copy the text in some areas. These files have different areas that contain text. You are able to highlight a part of the text, but in other areas, you can not (even if they have the same font).
The question is, which gives the text the ability to be selected and copied during registration as a PDF document?
Including...
Using BOLD, ITALICS or ALL uppercase in the settings of character disables the ability to highlight and copy the text once the file is saved in PDF format.

Hi StephanieCowley,
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.
In addition, how are you doing today?
You have a problem with opening the Zip files on the computer. This can be very frustrating for you, and I appreciate the efforts you have put in. Let us work together as a team and try to get this fixed number.
We start with a few questions-
(1) is this problem limited to opening files on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome?
(2) you are able to open other files zip on the computer?
(3) you have a program to open ZIP files installed on the computer?
(4) you are able to open the same file on another computer (running the same version of the operating system)?
(5) you get an error code?
(6) do you have made further changes on the computer before the show?
I would like more information about the issue.
It is possible the file association by default to open this type of file is either corrupted or needs to be changed.
Method 1-
I would like that you try to open other files zip on the computer. Check if it helps.
Method 2-
I would have you scan a System File Checker to verify violations of integrity.
See the article-
How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7
