Writer of default open instead of Player Adobe
Hi all
I recently installed a copy of Adobe Writer on my machine that already had an installation of Adobe Reader 9.0 on this. The reason for the old writer was to modify existing PDF and the last copy of the company's liscence to.
Now, I have a problem of all the links on the web trying to open automatically with Adobe Writer and as an older version does not open. I have to save a copy on your computer and then open with player here. Very frustrating.
I did that in my Windows Explorer options that Adobe reader is the default for all types of opening PDF files and have always perform this action checked but for some reason any Explorer keep trying to open links in the writer. This then leads to an error indicating that you must be opeing document in reader 8.0 or later.
Does anyone know of a difficulty, without an installation of the writer?
Thank you

Over the years I come in here, I did not somehow to set. I'm sorry.
The only thing that is guaranteed to work is to upgrade your version of Acrobat to newest and get rid of the drive or remove Adobe Reader and install third party reader (such as Foxit). Two things about this one, you can stop Acrobat when you uninstall Reader and need to reinstall and two, Foxit Reader may or may not have all the functions you need for your particular use (or it may be all you need).

Using Player Adobe 11, now comes up with an error, once the file is opened. "Invalid Plugin detected, will waive the software Adobe reader." Close the program so cannot display PDF files. Running windows 7. I uninstalled and reinstalled the same Adobe. Help
It seems that something has been added in the folder on the drive. I would recommend http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.htmluninstalling the program, running, removing any left over parts of the record player (this could be the problem), reboot and reinstall. If all goes well, that solved the problem. Future questions about the player, you should consider asking in the forum of reader, is not.

I downloaded xi player adobe but cannot open my system is Windows 7 Professional edition?
I downloaded xi player adobe but it opens--my system is Windows 7 Professional family?
A few things to try...
- 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
- You can open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].
- If Reader opens in itself, try to disable the Safe_mode in the registry; Download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
- It might even be a malware problem; See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

photos which won't open in media player.
A large number of photos does not open in Media Player. Instead of my original image they are depicted with a Mountain & Lake scene. Trying to open an any of them a message, Media Player States had problems to read this file? Someone at - he lost any idea why this has happened & is the original images? It also appears that I'm unable to delete these files?
Thanks for any help.
Hi ' David, thanks for your support.
Your 1st letter of instruction... would you still please forgive my ignorance. I have no reference to the Windows Photo Viewer on my computer. Some blocked images may have been deleted as just to get rid of bad pictures, but most are those to keep.
Following the advice...
1. in the opening of Media Player, right-click on the image, choose the location of the opened file. Result = nothing happens, no message at all.
2. I followed the link from Microsoft windows to find where the blocked images. Followed all the recommendations of various research & got negative results.
3. I tried the same search on Windows live photo gallery & the result was instant & blocked all of them are open, also even in Adobe photo shop.
I have not tried to go further at this stage.
Thank you, best regards. Tony T.

Change options of text fields PDF form open in the PLAYER on a Mac.
I created a PDF using Adobe X PRO form. All fields are DISABLED for the Options/Properties / "scroll long text. I save and distribute the form as a "reader extended pdf/activate additional features' so can be saved and returned using the PLAYER.
When a Mac user opens the form in Adobe READER, ALL text fields change to scroll. When he returned the form for me, each text field, signing even and fields date, are modified to scroll the text.
What happens during the transition from PC to MAC?
Preview is the default on Mac PDF Viewer. It should never be used with PDF Forms. Let them know that they must use Adobe Reader. Provide a link or a URL where it can be downloaded and let them know that it's free.
There are things you can do to make it work not in the preview, but it's some scripts. If you are interested in this approach, post again.

You can also have a virus. There are some that will hide your files/folders so that you don't normally see them. I strongly suggest to run a scan on your computer with your antivirus/antimalware software. If you need to, you can also use the Microsoft Safety Scanner, it's free:

How default search instead of Windows Search Assistant?
Using XP. Windows Search has been installed with a recent update of the Windows desktop. I use other software for indexing as most of my documents files, binary no text or word. I disabled indexing, but "Windows Search" is always the default when I select "Search for" in a Windows Explorer window.
I can pick him 'click here to use the Search Assistant' at the bottom of the window, but I would have preferred that search companion is the DEFAULT search method.
What do I need to 'twist' to get the default return Research Assistant?
I found the answer here, and it has worked great for me.
http://www.ehow.com/how_5473226_make-instead-Windows-desktop-search.html
I did have to uninstall Windows Desktop Search. The change is taken into account, you may need to restart your PC.
The instructions at the above URL address are as follows:
1 log into Windows as a power user or administrator - you need elevated privileges to access the registry editor.
2. open my computer or Windows Explorer. Expand your C: drive. Right click on the Program Files folder, and then select "search".
3. Windows Desktop Search (WDS) opens. In the lower left of the screen you will see "this folder is not indexed. Click on the "...". Please use Search Companion"link to open the Wizard search. This step ensures that the necessary registry value is created.
4. close the Windows Search Companion and WDS.
5. click on the Windows Start, then "Run" button (or press WINDOWS + R keys on your keyboard.) In the open dialog box, type REGEDIT, and then click OK. The Registry Editor opens.
6. to change the setting for all users of the computer, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Desktop Search\DS.
To change the setting for the current user only account, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Desktop Search\DS.7. in the right pane, double-click the item "ShowStartSearchBand". In the value data field, change the '1' '0 '. Click OK, and then close the registry editor.
8. now when you right click on a folder in Explorer and select 'Search', the Search Companion window opens instead of WDS.

Original title: why are my programs opening all the wrong places
Either I get an error that says I have to reinstall my program because there is no file Rtl120 or my programs try to open in my program Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. Everything seems to be incorrectly installed. Why has this happened? My computer is only a few months old.
Hello
1. you have any third-party tune at the top of the software installed on the computer?
2 did you have any software or changes to the material on the computer before this problem?
Method 1:
Scan your computer in safe mode.
Step 1:
Start your computer in safe mode with network.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode
NOTE: see 3 from the link above, Advanced options boot (including safe mode).
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode
Select Mode safe mode with networking.
Step 2:
I suggest you run an antivirus scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner to confirm that your computer is free from any infection by the virus. Please find the link below.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
The Microsoft Safety Scanner is not a replacement for the use of antivirus software that offers continuous protection.

After I open a document using Adobe reader DC and want to save it with the help of Save as when I try to open this operation all I get is an empty windo saying save as. This problem just started, note I'm on Windows 7 Prof
Hi sgodwin2468,
Make sure that Acrobat Reader DC is updated Release Notes | Adobe Acrobat, Reader.
If the problem persists, try the solution below.
The default "save under" Acrobat/Reader DC dialog box is different from the dialogue box you had in earlier versions of Acrobat/Reader, it also allows you to record in the clouds and previous locations that you saved the files. It is possible that when Acrobat/Reader tries to connect to the 'cloud', it runs into problems. You can try to disable this feature to see if this brings your backup in the back of the box: open Acrobat Preferences, then go to the "General" category and uncheck "show the online storage when you save files:

I had windows 7 and it has been updated to windows 10. After the update, I opened a PDF with adobe reader. The sign economy is idle. When I click on save slot, it is said that he can save a blank document. Earlier, I have not a problem to save a pdf document with adobe reader on my hard drive. I found no updates available for my adobe reader software. Is adobe still to make the drive compatible with windows 10?

Bernd, these rights are not necessary to the reader XI. Unless the file has been secured, then it should be savable.
I recommend that upgrade you to the latest version of the XI player that is available and if this does not work, try to run a repair installation (or upgrade to DC).
