Thank you very much for the help. I have hp pavilion dv 7. with windows 7.

Hello

As it is a file association problem, try running the Windows system restore.  If you have Norton Internet Security installed, you should first disable Norton Protection Tamper as shown in the link below.

Norton self-protection.

Once you're done, shut down the laptop.  Windows system restore is usually better run in Mode without failure.  Tap away at f8 that you start the laptop to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  When it has loaded, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 24 hours prior to change in file association and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart normally.

Kind regards

    • 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.

  • The research of the embedded index does not work for the PDF file opened with Adobe Reader in a browser

    Due to the way in which we use our Document management system, if we want to search through multiple or large files stored in our DMS PDF we merge PDF together and create an embedded index. This works perfectly well, when you open the PDF file in Adobe Reader standalone. Enter a particular term can bring 100 hits (very quickly) in the Adobe Reader search results pane.

    However, if we launch the PDF with Adobe Reader in Internet Explorer (any version), enter a term to search (contained in document) only get one result, that of the file name of the document itself.

    Unfortunately most of our users will access our DMS documents with internal links.

    Any ideas greatly appreciated.

  • bookmarks and attachments disappear when opened with Adobe Reader 11.0.13

    I have a PDF file contains a few bookmarks and an attachment, it can be opened without any problem until the recent update of Adobe Reader (11.0.13), all attachment and bookmarks do not appear when it is opened with the latest Adobe Reader.)

    (this PDF file with 2 trailers, don't know if that's the reason)

    Is this a player new bug?

    The problem is that PDF files are not quite accurate because their flow Xref says it has N inputs but ends up containing N + 1, so new versions of reader that contain additional validations (for the strengthening of safety) are unable to process this object. For example, in the PDF @yr shared, if we made the changes:

    34/Size

    2952/Size

    TO:

    35/Size

    2953/Size

    (in the two components of the xref)

    then the problem disappears, and the reader is able to open the file very well! See: https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/c34d7af8-3627-4209-9a79-4860279207f9

    This seems to be a bug in the producer that generates these PDF files.

  • PDF files opens with Adobe Reader.

    When I double click on a file PDF Adobe Reader opens to a blank screen for a few seconds and then closes.  The same files open fine with Expert PDF software.

    Three things to try...

    1. Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, and then double-click Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    2. You can open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].
    3. It might even be a malware problem; See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
  • .Pst files corrupted due to wrong trying to open it with Adobe Reader

    This is a second post about the same problem, as previously, I had only one response (from b. from), who asked me to identify my operating system. I am beyond desperate to get this problem fixed.

    As described previously (S giraffe - 11/14), I was about to apply a recovery program of electronic mail to some .pst files when, somehow (late at night / tired), I clicked by mistake on 'open with Adobe Reader. Then the disaster! The Adobe Reader logo appeared on the .pst file icon - and also on all other files in the My Documents folder .pst. When I tried to open them I got the following error message:

    "Adobe Reader could not open '.pst Outlook (_)' because it is not a type of file supported or because the file has been damaged."

    I went back to my drive hard new exernal decompress the original backup files, but these, too, all of them had the logo of Adobe Reader on their icons and brought the same error message. How could try to open a file .pst with Adobe Reader have affected each other .pst on my C drive and in my external hard disk file?

    I need to retrieve my emails and contacts! Can anyone tell me anything that allow me to fix everything that makes the Adobe Reader for my .pst files and bring them back to their previous state. I would be extremely grateful.

    Adobe Reader 'did not' something to your PST file, but you have probably changed the file association by leaving "Always use the selected program to open this type of file" checked.

    What you need to do is to reset the file of Adobe Reader software association and for example replace SCANPST. EXE

    If you have a recent system restore (before changing the file association), the restore save point point.  If not, you must manually change (be it in the registry, or by opening the file with SCANPST PST. EXE and again always check 'using the program selected... '. ».

  • Open the PDF with Adobe Reader - wonder what must do Firefox - every time

    Hello

    Whenever I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me "that should Firefox do with this file.
    I opened with Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the box 'do this automatically... ". "checked.

    So, it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

    Hi - I do not always want to ask; I want that he will never ask.

    That said, I changed my setting of the option "always ask" and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the open dialog box to ask me what to do. The box 'do this automatically... ". ' has been disabled, as expected.

    I checked the box 'do this automatically... ". "and now Firefox is most requested.

    Weird way to solve the problem, but it seems to work fine now.
    Thank you

  • Bar code printed with Adobe Reader XI can be recognized by bar code reader

    Dear support,


    We generate barcodes and convert it into pdf file using Crystal Report for .NET Framework 2.0


    The pdf file opens with Adobe reader XI / FoxitReader 4.3.1. It is printed with Avery Dennison AP 5.4 300 dpi.


    When the pdf file is printed with Adobe reader XI, the barcode can be read with the code reader barcode, but when it is printed with FoxitReader 4.3.1 barcode can be read with the barcode reader.

    I compared the two codes barcode printed and found Adobe printed the thicker lines and larger characters. Thus, two lines pasted together and become a 1 line. As a result, it can be recognized by bar code reader.


    Could you explain why this happen and how to solve this problem in Adobe? Are there settings I can change to fix?


    Thank you very much.

    Operating system: Windows Xp or Windows 7


    Application: Adobe reader XI or FoxitReader 4.3.1

    I printed the label using Adobe Reader 11.0.06 and the bar code looks like absolutely perfect:

    I have also no problem scanning that bar code printed; It reads 00000000110001900631.

    So, in the end, I don't know what the cause of your side.  Can you try to print as Image (Advanced on printing Panel button)?

    If the problem persists, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling adobe.

    You can try to uninstall all older versions, Adobe Acrobat , and see if the problem is resolved. Uninstall earlier versions of the application and then install the version you want. If multiple versions of Adobe Reader are installed on the system, remove all versions and install only one version.
    To do this, follow these steps:
    1. click on Start, type Appwiz.cpl in the Start Search box, and then click Appwiz.cpl in the list of found files.
    2. double-click on the version of Acrobat or reader you want to uninstall.
    3. click on Yes if you are prompted to confirm that you want to uninstall the program.
    Note If you are prompted to confirm that you want to run the program, click on allow.
    4. click Yes to restart the computer.
