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.
