  You mean PDF not PDL. (I presume).
  Save a PDF to your HARD drive, make a click right, choose 'Open with', choose "choose default program", choose Acrobat, and then at the bottom of the dialog box, click "always use the selected program to open...". "and then click OK.

• How to restore my files out of windows media center?

  for some reason when I saved a file in another file it changed my entire system to play windows media center nonstop... now he always plays and I can't control it.

  My husband has had the same problem for another reason however, he managed to correct the problem by restarting the computer... by pressing the F8 key at all times as it has been restarted.  It opens a window which says "fix."  In this form it was to "restore the computer to an earlier date" as one of his choices.  Go back as much as necessary and click on restore.  It fixed my problem.  I have tried many other alternatives and this is what finally worked.  Another option reopened as Media Center.  Good luck.

• How do you use the cutting tool with a PDF file open in Windows 8?

  None of the above has solved the problem of the use of the cutting tool when you have a PDF file open or an open image.  Can anyone give me a suggestion to update?  Thanks fitz

  Key to victory over the key PrintScreen puts a photo full screen in pictures/screenshots.   Use your cutting tool on this screenshot with windows PhotoViewer?

  Or just install an alternative pdf viewer as the free tracker software Xchange pdf viewer that happens to have a cutting tool built into it.

• At the opening of Windows Media Center I get the following message: INVALID APPLICATION; "Unable to launch SymAddin; and a checkbox to disable this Application (I have not checked the box).

  If I click OK, the program seems to function, but I was wondering if all the features or functions are working properly.   I checked the Microsoft and Windows Update Sites, as well as the Windows Media Center Site and there is no mention of this message or patches.  Is this a problem? Should I just ignore the message?  Is there a fix or update?

  I am running Vista Home Premium on a Fujitsu N6470 with Intel Core 2 Duo T575 clocked at 2.0 GHz and 3 GB of RAM.

• each download will in pdf file that opens in windows media center, I can not pull up or the play .i see the file but do not know how to access the media center.hope it makes sense.

  I have media library but do not know how to open files that is downloaded.

  Media Center does not open PDF files and PDF files have nothing to do with playback of music or videos.  Somehow, downloads do not create the appropriate file types.  Where are you these downloads?  Can you give me a website?  You want to download (images, videos, music, what)?  What version of Media Center do you use?  What version of Vista are you using?  How do you download files and if you use a browser, which is the name and version of the browser?

  Thank you!

  How can I fix it?

  Hi toddt44078846,

  Open the drive, go to the Edit menu-> Preferences-> Security (Enhanced) & uncheck the display in protected mode.

  Now, try to reproduce the problem.

  I would like to know if it works.

  Kind regards
