.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... '. ».

Original title: JPG files attached in Windows 8
I use Windows 8 and when I try to open JPG files in outlook attachments, he tries to open it in Word and it's gibberish. Also, I tried to save it as a document but with the same results. Any suggestions?
You can change the default program that gets used to correct this problem.
First, save the attachment to a location like your desktop (it will just be temporary). Then, right-click on the file and choose "Open with", then "choose default program". In this list, you can collect you Photos app (or photo viewer based on the desktop if you prefer not to use the apps full screen tablet) and it will use who instead of Word in the future.

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.

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.

How to open the files .dll automatically with Adobe Reader via Firefox?
Hello
When I print labels eBay via Firefox, a .dll file is downloaded. This used to automatically open in Adobe Reader, but now it opens as a text document in TextEdit, so I have to manually open Adobe Reader, change the options to display "all files", then find the .dll file and open it.
When I try to change the default application in the preferences of Firefox, I can't find anything with the content type "dll".
Is there a way to have Firefox automatically opens files .dll with Adobe Reader?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
Steve
Sorry for the delay, but yes, just stop Firefox so that the mimeTypes.rdf file is released.

I converted MS-Outlook 2010 e-mail folder (and emails) into a PDF portfolio. When I have Adobe Reader X R-clicked, selected, I got and error message "To display the contents of the Flash technology in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat". I get the same msg when I try to open it with Acrobat. He worked the week last in Adobe Reader. I have the latest version of Flash Player installed. The portfolio opens when I click on < more >, but the Index is missing and I can't get to the first email. PC platform. Anyone else having this problem? If so, how to fix?
You are running Internet Explorer by chance? If so, the Flash Player you have is NOT in need of Adobe Reader and Acrobat. If there is a link in the message, use that, rather than assuming that you already have Flash Player. If this does not work, let us know.
