How to disable pop up Make Adobe Reader my default PDF Application in registry

Hi
I am wondering if there is a registry setting that can disable the pop-up Make Adobe Reader my default PDF Application ?
I have seen there is a setting under Edit\Preferences\General\"Tell me if Adobe Reader is not my default PDF Application" but cannot find a registry setting to disable this. This message pops up for some users in a remote desktop session host environment even though I have disabled the messages on the session hosts.
Thanks,
Andrew

  • How do I make Adobe Reader my default PDF reader ?

    Hi im trying to open PDF  a file from a website , but unable as it has to be adobe viewer how can I make adobe my default reader ?
    Thanks Davie

    Davie,
    My question would be why would you want to have Acrobat as the default view? Preview comes with OS X and opens PDF documents just fine. However if you must then select any pdf on the computer then type Command I (I as in Ivan) to get the information window on the document. Next chose Adobe View under Open With and click Change All.

  • How do I make Adobe Reader my default PDF app.?

    Hey everybody. I haven't been around lately. Hope all are well!
    I'm trying to figure out how to make Adobe the default PDF viewer instead of Preview.
    Any ideas?
    I posted this in the Panther room, but figured I'd get a quicker response here!

    Thanks Allan.
    Good to see the usual gang is still here. Sorry for being such a stranger. I'll try and stick my head in a little more often.
    I'm still using my old beige with all the ease in the world. It's like nothing ever goes wrong anymore. I did have a little directory clutter not long ago that even gave Disk Warrior a hard time, but I prevailed in the end! This machine is so awesome.
    I never did make it out west. Right as I was ready to do it, gas went to $3.00 a gal. That killed that idea. Maybe sometime soon.
    Take care, Al

  • How do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file

    how do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file?

    What is your current default?  If Adobe Acrobat (X or XI), you can set it in your preferences.
    If it's another program, reinstalling or repairing Adobe Reader will set it to the default program.

    What do you mean you are "using Adobe Reader'?   Inside of a browser?  Inside of your application?  Stand-alone?

  • How to disable overprint feature in Adobe Reader 9 or 10 when printing?

    Hi,
    I have a PDF document with overlapping objects (black text on top of pink text).  When I print from Adobe Reader 9 or 10 using any PCL color print driver (Windows 7 32-bit/64-bit), the pink text shows through, regardless of "Use Overprint Preview" setting in Adobe Reader Preferences.  Is there a way to turn this off for printing using any setting in Adobe Reader 9 or 10?  I don't want the pink text to show through, which is what is displayed on screen when I set "User Overprint Preview" to Never.  Print As Image didn't help either.
    Thanks!

    You are, I'm afraid, chasing an impossible security that cannot exist. Many have sought this, but it just isn't there -- and there is so much more than the save button involved.

  • How do I restore Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer in Safari

    Sometime in the last few days Preview became the default viewer for PDFs in Safari. I prefer Adobe Reader, and up until recently it was the default viewer. Funny thing is I don't think I've made any changes to Preferences or any System updates in that time. I don't see any Preferences in Preview, Safari, or Adobe Reader, which might affect this. The AdobePDFViewer plugins are still in place.
    Also strange when I click the open PDF in Preview button, it actually opens in Reader.

    Select the icon of a PDF file. Go to File > Get Info (or cmd-I). In the new window, go to Open with and choose in the pulldown menu the application you want to use to open PDF files. Click on Change all... Close the window. Come back here and tell us if this did it.

  • Hyperlinked files opens with Pro even though Reader is default PDF application

    Hello.
    I have a Windows 2008 x64 Server that I have installed both Adobe Pro X and Adobe Reader X on. I have installed Pro first, then Reader, both with MST files, so that Reader is the default PDF viewer.  Reader shows as the default program and if you double click on a PDF document, Reader does indeed open.  However, if a hyperlink in Word or some other document points to a PDF file, Adobe Pro opens instead.  I need to make Reader the default application for all references to PDF files, but I need to keep Pro and Reader installed on the server at the same time.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi,
    Could you try re-setting the default PDF handler to Adobe Reader 10.1.2 again and see if it helps. You can do the same by:
    1. Launching Reader.
    2. Goto Edit > Preferences > General
    3. Click on "Select Default PDF Handler" and chose Reader. If its set as Reader initially, try switching it to Acrobat and then back to Reader again, to remove any incorrect associations on your system.

    That was always set correctly.  However, I did uninstall and reinstall Reader with a newer patch.  It seems to be the default for even embedded PDF files now.  The new problem is Reader now asks for the user to select a language before opening, but it does this only with embedded pdfs.  Double clicking on an actual pdf file opens Reader with no issues.

  • Making Adobe as the default PDf reader

    How can I make Adobe as a default pdf reader for windows phone 8?
    Where does the Adobe reader store local files in wp8? Can I know its path in windows phone 8?

    Maybe starting Acrobat 9 (NOT Distiller 9: this is an extra component
    of Acrobat, and not involved in opening PDFs) will help. But overall,
    mixing releases and Acrobat/Reader on the same computer isn't
    recommended for this sort of reason.

  • Safari keeps trying to use Adobe Reader to view PDFs

    I had to download adobe reader because my banks electronic statements can only be read by it. Even tho it is not my default reader Safari always tried to use it to read a pdf. I can't find any way to tell Safari to use Preview again without uninstalling Adobe Reader.
    Thanks

    I had the same problem with bank and some government (FAA) sites. 
    Without Adobe Reader installed, they either would not download or would download a blank pdf page.
    With Aobe Reader installed, you can download to view in Safari, but cannot save on your Mac as a .pdf.
    [When Adobe Reader is default .pdf reader it hijacks the Export PDF option, including using printer driver to print to file as .pdf]
    Deleting AdobePDFVewer.plugin from /Library/Internet will work, but there are a couple of easier fixes than deleting and reinstalling the plugins:
    You can switch the default viewer back and forth (including Safari's default viewer) by: 
    Right click on a .pdf file and from the context menu select Get Info > Open With: (select Adobe Reader or Preview) > Change All and close the popup to set selected app as default.
    If you have to use Adobe Reader to view a .pdf on the picky site and decide to save it - don't try to use Adobe Reader to do so (via Safari).
      Instead either:
    1. Option click on the site's link to the .pdf to download to your default download folder.
    - or-
    2. Right click on the site's link to the .pdf and select either "download linked file..." or "Save linked file as.." and save to desired folder.
    I am not sure if this will work in all cases, but so far it has worked OK for those I normally use.

  • How do I make Adobe Reader X my default PDF Reader (over Nitro)?

    How do I make Adobe Reader X my defaulf PDF reader (over Nitro)?

    Very helpful, slight change, after right clicking PDF causing list of possible programs, go to    Open With, then when the list comes up do not click on desired program, scan down to the bottom of pop up menu to Choose program, right click that causing another menu "Open with" window, then selectr Adobe from the list and also click the box to the left of "Always use this selected program to open this kind of file", and then click OK. 
    These variations may be due to different versions of Windows - I have XP SP3.  I consider that ~graffiti deserves 10 points for his answer!!!  I worked for teo days trying to fix thi so I can doemload legal files from PACER without having to pay their fees for my case files.

  • How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open for incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

    How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open for incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

    Hi,
    Assuming that you have Reader 9.3.4 already installed on your machine, you can try the following to make Reader 9.3.4 as the default PDF opening application:
    1. Right click on any PDF on your system and click on the "Open With" Option in the context menu that appears. In case you get another submenu, click on Chose Program in that menu. (In case you do not see any "Open With" option, then hold down the Shift key and right click on the file)
    2. Click on Browse button in the dialog that appears, and select Reader 9. Make sure that you select the checkbox for "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
    3. Click on OK.
    This will make Adobe Reader 9 as the default viewer for all PDFs on your system.
