Adobe reader 8.1.5 file version??

once adobe reader 8.1.5 is installed, is there any file/registry-entry that reflects that "8.1.5" is installed?
thanks

Hi Sammy,
Reference my reply here and see if this works for v8.1.5 as well. Obviously you will need to substitute the registry subkeys and folders with the correct version number.

Adobe Reader X opening old file revision/version

I have a user in my organization attempting to open a .PDF file in IE8 with Adobe Reader X and keeps getting an old revision of the file. When other users log on to the same PC and put in the URL to the same .PDF file then the newer revision of the file opens.
The only thing that I can think is that for some reason the user's Adobe Reader keeps loading an old version in cache. I have deleted IE Internet cookies & temporary files, but that didn't seem to help. I also opened Adobe Reader Preferences | Page Display and unchecked "Use Page Cache", but that didn't help. Neither did unchecking the boxes under Prefernces | Internet for "Allow fast web view" nor "Allow speculative downloading in the background".
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Out of curiousity, try using a different browser and see what happens? Which version gets downloaded?
Then try to use MSIE and right-click on the url and download the file? Which version of the file gets downloaded?

Adobe Reader does not recognize file name (filename10.5.11.pdf) but does in Adobe Standard 9. Why?

I post documents to our Intranet site and found out recently that Adobe Reader does not recognize certain file names in PDF files. For instance, when trying to open a PDF file with the name
filename10.5.11.pdf in Adobe Reader, the web browser will not open the PDF and the display is blank.   When I'm using another computer with Adobe Standard 9, I do not have a problem opening the file.
I would like to know if anyone else has had a similar issue and why Reader will not recognize the file name and Standard does.

The version is Adobe Reader 10.1.0    I will request the latest version
and let you know if that fixes the problem
Actually I had changed the name of the file so our associates could access
the file (changed the . to a hyphen) It still made me wonder why Reader
wouldn't open it at that time.
Thanks again for you assistance and I will let you know if this resolves
the issue.
Regards,
Susan

Hi Susan,
Thanks for providing the information.
Could you also let me know what is the exact version of Adobe Reader on
your system. You can check the same y clicking on Help > About Adobe
Reader X.
In case its not 10.1.1, please try updating to the latest version and see
if the problem persists.
Also, does any other PDF with a different filename open in Internet
Explorer correctly?
Thanks
Ankit

I have an iMac. I noticed that I have both versions 8 and 9 of Adobe Reader. Can I remove version 8 ?

I have an iMac. I noticed that I have both versions 8 and 9 of Adobe Reader. Can I remove version 8 ?

Yes.
If you double click on a PDF and your system uses 8 to open it, you may have to repair (Help>Repair... in Reader) the 9 installation or you could change your file associations to use 9 to open PDF files.
If 9 opens them already, just remove 8 and you're good to go.

Can the folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 and the files it contains simpley be deleted?

My daughter is running Adobe Reader 9.4.5 and Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X
on a Dell Dimension 4400 system with
Windows XP Home Edition version 2002 Service Pack 3.
During a full system backup using Seagate DiskWizard version 11.0.8326
each time folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6
is accessed the pc freezes with the Blue Screen error
IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL ERROR 0x0000000A
(0x00000166, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x804E5443).
Each time the Adobe Reader 6 folder is opened manually, the system presents a spinning
CD icon superimposed on the cursor and attempts to access the CD drive.
The access ultimately fails since there is no CD loaded because there is no intent to install
anything at the moment.
Through a manual process of backing up each of the the files in the Adobe Reader 6 folder
individually, one at a time, I strongly suspect the problem file to be instmsiw.exe.
Can the folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 and the files it contains simpley be deleted?
Are there any registry entries or issues that must be addressed before deleting these files?
What is the best way to free up space on the C drive that is apparently being occupied by
files left over from the install of a prior version of Adobe Reader?
The folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 contains the following files:

Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and uninstall Adobe Reader 6. That version poses a security risk to your system and should be removed a.s.a.p.
After you remove it, reboot and then delete the "Adobe Reader 6" folder at the location you mentioned above.
Then go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/direct/ and download version 9.4
After that installs, download the latest patch for it by opening the program, then go to Help | Check For Updates.
As a precaution, download the free version of Malwarebytes from here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free and then run a full system scan.

Adobe Reader DC not opening files - What do I do?

I recently, April 14th, updated my Adobe Reader to the latest DC version. But, as I am trying to open/download files I've received via e-mail or from online, DC comes up for about 1 second before disappearing/closing. I saved some documents to my computer and tried pulling them up that way, and it works this way. But, I don't want to save every file. I'd have to save the file, go to the Downloads folder, open to read, and delete if I don't want it or re-save if I do.
That can I do?
I have an HP Pavilion laptop, Windows 7.
Thanks much.
G.

pwillener, Thanks for trying to help, but, though I disabled protected mode as you mentioned, Reader DC is still not opening files I'm trying to download. It's just coming up for a few seconds and closing.

Go to Tools - Options - Applications and enter "pdf" into the filter field. Select the action that you want to associate with PDF files.

Is Adobe Reader Touch a more current version than Adobe Reader 9?

Is Adobe Reader Touch a more current version than Adobe Reader 9? I am reviewing spec requirements for a software program to run on my Microsoft Surface RT, and need to know if the Adobe Reader Touch (which is currently the only Adobe Reader available in the Microsoft Store) is an "Adobe Reader 9 or later" version of Reader.

Adobe Reader Touch (Windows Store app with "Modern" UI) and Adobe Reader XI (traditional desktop app with classic UI) are completely different products. Probably the only thing in common is the first part of the name "Adobe Reader".
The latest versions of Adobe Reader Touch are
version 2.0 for Windows 8.1/RT 8.1
version 1.3 for Windows 8/RT
For a Surface RT tablet running the Windows RT operating system, your choice of a PDF viewer is somewhat limited to Adobe Reader Touch or Microsoft Reader. Because Adobe Reader XI is not compatible with the Windows RT operating system.

Adobe Reader could not open "file"

Adobe Reader could not open "file" because it is either not a supported file or it has been damaged. All files and programs on the desktop are shown as Adobe Reader ikons. When I remove the Adobe Reader program, the desktop is ok but when I reinstall the Adobe Reader it makes a mess again on the desktop and in all programs. It seems that the Adobe Reader is somehow a default program for all applications. How do I solve that problem? Best regards Helle D.

For your first question: are you sure that 'file' is a PDF file and that it is not damaged? And you may find this useful for your second question:

Only first page prints PDF files Adobe Reader 9 kb40558 fix Chinese version

Latest Adobe Reader update deleted all files from my desktop - help please!

Dear all!
Yesterday I opened up a .pdf document with Adobe Reader. I clicked the Help | Check for Updates option. The reader informed me that there was an update available. I then disabled my antivirus (as is recommended). I selected the available update by checking the box next to it. I then clicked the Download option.
The update began to download. At that moment I noticed that the .pdf document was still open (i.e. Adobe Reader was still running). Knowing that the installation, when it begins, tends to notify me that it must close Adobe Reader in order for the installation to continue, I decided to close Adobe Reader myself before being prompted to do so. All was fine until that moment, as the update download and install runs in a completely separate process from the Reader, it was not affected.
After I closed the Reader, with the update still running I noticed that all files I had on my desktop were gone. None of the folders were missing, just the single files and most of my shortcuts. I checked to see if the files were just invisible or phisically missing. It was the latter. Windows Explorer showed that all files I had on my desktop were gone (deleted/overwritten I guess). A search of my computer for the file names came up empty, even though I was searching with the "search hidden and system files" options enabled!
I tried a number of deleted file restoration softwares but none have identified the desktop files I was missing.
Be so kind as to spare me from the "did you check the power cord" category of "answers", as I am not a complete idiot. The Acrobat Update, or something associated with it has to be at the root of this problem, as the antivirus software I have installed came up empty when I searched the computer for virurses, worms and the likes...
All help on this matter would be appreciated. Needless to say, most of my current work was stored on the desktop...
I am running WindowsXP sp. 3, Acrobat Reader 9.34
With regards
jack_84

Please ignore the previous unrelated reply - I will deal with it separately.
I must first say that this is a very puzzling problem, and that I have never heard of anything like it. Apart from the missing desktop content, it also puzzles me that you state your Adobe Reader version as 9.34, when the latest Reader version is actually 9.3.2.
Anyway, how to solve it? Can I assume that you do not have a very recent backup, from where you can simply restore all the lost content?
I do not know if your desktop content is really gone (deleted), or if it is somehow just not visible. There are a few things we can try, but I strongly suggest that you make a full backup of your system before you try anything!
Since I have never seen this before, I cannot make any definitive recommendations, but just suggest what I would do if that happened on my computer. Again, not before making a full backup.
Uninstall Adobe Reader.
System Restore to a time before the problem started.
Check the following registry keys, if they have a value 'NoDesktop', and what it is set to
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer
If you are on XP Pro, you can use gpedit.msc to check these settings (Configuration | Administrative Templates | Desktop ["Hide and disable all items on the desktop"]).

Problems with opening Adobe Reader 9 or pdf files

Hi,
Can someone please help me resolve this problem? I had no problem using Adobe Reader 8 but since removing Adobe Reader 8 and download the updated Adobe Reader 9, I cannot open any pdf files or the Adobe Reader 9 (on desktop) without receiving the following error message:
"Adobe Reader 9.3 has encountered a problem and needs to close". I tried several times to download and reinstall Adobe Reader 9 without any success. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for coming back to me. Remember when I've received the error message previously "Error 1327. Invalid Drive: E:\", I've decided to try inserting my flash drive into the E drive (since I've downloaded the Adobe file previously from my flash drive to my desktop pc) and then try removing the Adobe Reader 9.3.4 and it works!!!! I am now working with the earlier version ie. Adobe Reader 8 which works fine. I would like to try again to download the Adobe 9.3.4 but have previously tried 3 times and failed. What else can I try to do to download, install and run this latest version without experiencing the same problem over again? Thanks.

Upgrading Adobe Reader 11.0.03 to version 11.0.06

My usual packaging and deployment consists of extracting the installer exe and running the msi through the customization wizard Adobe provides.
This latest 11.0.06 comes as a solo msp as well... I'm fully aware and works well to upgrade existing 11x installs. However my environment has regions where I do not control the release of Reader,
and they might have PC's with 10x versions running wild. Plus I need to be able to do initial installs of Reader on new PC's.
Here's what I've done:
I've followed this article:
http://www.scconfigm...ith-powershell/
Even the execmgr log files on the client machine also show that the installation was pushed out successfully, but when you log onto that particular client computer and check the program version either by launching Adobe
Reader and go into About it's still showing version11.0.03. The Control
Panel also shows version 11.0.03 in the Programs/Features area.
Again- yes the msp works great on its own, but I would love to have just one script to install or upgrade any existing Reader! I expect major upgrades getting wonky, but, I absolutely dispise how Adobe cannot
get their minor updates to be consistent!
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
J

I prefer this method instead:
http://www.scconfigmgr.com/2013/09/10/deploy-adobe-reader-11-0-4-with-configmgr-2012-sp1/
Also note that because the outcome will be a MSI package with the SAME productcode as the 11.00, you'll need additional detection method for your ConfigMgr application. I use the file version of AcroRead32.exe
