How to remove "Open with... Adobe Acrobat" from the right click context menu

We want to deploy Adobe Acrobat on our Citrix envoriment. At this moment we have Adobe Reader for all users installed. Adobe Acrobat should be only availible to a selection of users. I've tried to remove everything with the custimaztion tool but one thing which I'm not able to is to remove the option when you right click a PDF document that you can choose to open with and then Adobe Acrobat XI. I want to disable this because else users who don't have the permission to run Adobe Acrobat are still able to run it.

Sorry but you're not right, why are there then whtiepapers how to install it on Citrix?

  • Is there any way to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?

    Is there any way (about:config tweak, or something) to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?
    Screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://picsend.net/images/873089StupidReloadSto.png

    I did try the add-on ''Menu Editor'' https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ but even when I separate the navigation reload and stop icons and explicitly have both stop and reload set to be visible on the right click context menu I only get the one option showing.
    Whilst there may be some way of changing this I do not know how to and I do not really see any use case for making such a change. Only one option of the choice: stop or reload, is available at any instance in time, but that is the option you are able to use, the other option is not active and so is not displayed.

  • How do I fix the right-click context menu; it has blank entries and shows no selectable options?

    recently I have noticed that my right-click context menu looks like it has no entries. It shows up on a right-click, but the whole menu is blank. On further investigation there are scroll buttons on the top and bottom of the menu and if I hover over the up buttom eventually the normal context commands scroll down from above. I noticed this first a few days ago, shortly after the download of 3.6.13. Today I also noticed that some of my menu bars were showing a similar issue with blank entries in the menus. In one case the menu also didn't register where the mouse was, highlighting a command several steps further up.
    Is this something to do with the new Mozilla or something else? I only run a couple of addons, Ad Block Plus and Tab Mix Plus. Can try to capture a screen shot of the issue, but difficult since the menu dissapears when I try to do a screen grab!
    All help is much appreciated.

    Hi, thanks for the quick response!
    While trying to find info on how to fix this I looked up some context menu addons for FF and tried one. It didn't work so I uninstalled it and after that everything was back to normal. Odd, but there you have it. I still don't know what went wrong in the first place but for the moment it appears to have cleared up.
    Next time though I will try loading into Safe Mode if I find any issues (I forgot there was one!).
    Thanks for getting back to me again.

  • What Acrobat SDK Technology I need to build a plugin that creates a new item to the Right-Click context menu?

    I want to develop a plugin for Adobe Reader that will be invoked through a new item in the Right-Click menu.
    What is the right SDK Technology to build this new item? Javascript, Interapplication Communication or a C/C++ plugin?
    I would feel more comfortable with JS or C#, but I don't know if I must use the C++ API to be able to build such level of integration.
    Thank you very much.

    Plugins are written in C/C++ and especially something such as adding to the UI.
    To add this to Acrobat, no license or fee is required - you can do it today with just the SDK and Acrobat.
    However, to build a plugin for Reader, you will need to obtain a license from Adobe.  Details are in the SDK under "Reader Integration Key License Agreement" (RIKLA).

  • How can I edit the right-click context menu?

    I seem to have two entries for every Adobe product when I right-click a file and choose "Open With..." Is there a way to either clean it out automatically, or fix this myself?
    ...Mike

    Could be caused by several things I believe.
    You have already checked you have only one application folder with one Adobe
    app for each in it on your Disk?
    Also look in the preferences in Bridge under file type associations for the
    given extensions, do they also show double applications?
    Try first to refresh preferences with restart Bridge holding down option
    key, it is the first aid for Bridge and curing many problems.
    Also use Disk Utility to check and repair permissions for your OS.

  • Disable Right Click Context Menu in XP "OPEN WITH ADOBE READER 8"

    How can I eliminate the right click context menu "OPEN WITH ADOBE READER 8" in Windows XP?
    I have general familiarity with removing context menus. I see no option for this one in msconfig, or various context menu editors. I am unable to find a setting in Adobe Reader 8. If you know where the setting is, or have solved this problem, please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Joey

    That would be the device Metadata from the print driver vendor. It's part of the Device Stage feature mainly for client OS.
    Here is some MSDN documentation on the feature.
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/device-management
    If this is a print server, use the tools include by the print team if you are performing any management on the server.
    Printmanagement.msc
    The Devices UI is really about devices it's not designed for print management, the spooler team had minimal input on the UI design.

  • Hello, how can i modifie in the options, aplications, Adobe acrobat document, open with Adobe acrobat (in Firefox) instead of open with portable document format (default). Thanks

    I can'T open pdf links in another page, because in options, aplications i have in Adobe acrobat documents open with portable document format (default) and i must put open with Adobe Acrobat (in firefox) default.
    Where can i change the default?
    Tnaks

    All you now have to do is use that variable to the value property of your text field... So add this at the end of your code:
    this.getField("Conference_Option").value = ConferenceOpportunity;
    Also, I would use MouseUp, not MouseDown.

  • How to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users.

    Hi! I would like to know if there is any possibility to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users. I know that's possible to edit userContent.css or userChrome.css, but this concerns only a profile at a time and being in a domain, I would like to set this for all people using Firefox.
    Can it be possible to edit a mozilla.cfg file to get the same result?
    Thank you in advance for help and tips.

    AFAIK then there is no way to do that system wide. You can only do that via userChrome.css or an extension like the Menu Editor per profile .You can install extensions globally, but the user will have to enable them anyway. That is not required for userChrome.css code.

  • Why did Word on Office 2013 REMOVE Auto Correct from Right-Click Context Menu??

    Hi Microsoft -
    I normally don't rant, but this is a killer feature removal, and the reason given is for aesthetics - 'Removal of clutter" is how it's worded here:
    [Changes in Office 2013]
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178954(en-us).aspx
    I copy n pasted below the operative row from the linked TechNet page as to the reason WHY this critical (and very popular feature) has been removed from Microsoft Office 2013 Word's context-menu: LESS CLUTTER
    And your answer is ambiguous and doesn't solve the issue that you created to make things prettier: "Click the AutoCorrect Options button" Then what?  ADD EACH WORD MANUALLY? 
    Please advise ALL OF US that want this feature back how to have our commonly misspelled words fixed and added automatically to the dictionary.  If I am missing this in a major way somehow, I apologize completely and will issue a public apology via any
    social media platform of your choice.  If it really is gone, and I have to manually add the entries into a buried table 6-clicks deep, then I will issue a public excoriation of this feature on as many social platforms of my choice.
    Sincerely,
    Maximus Mednick

    Modifying the feature
    Auto-Correct and certain formatting tools are no longer available from the spelling error context menu.
    To make Word 2013 cleaner and less cluttered, we removed AutoCorrect and certain formatting tools from the spelling error context menu. The features are still available in Word 2013 through other entry points within the Word user interface.
    Less clutter in the spelling error context menu. This enables users to find popular commands more quickly. In addition, the spelling error context menu now fits better on the screen.
    To change AutoCorrect options, do the following:
    Choose File -> Options -> Proofing
    Choose the AutoCorrect Options button.

    Microsoft used to be about allowing users to customize the OS and apps however they want. This was one reason I have always preferred Windows over Mac. There are 5 ways to do any one thing, and you can customize it to do it however you want. It's all about
    user choice. Please don't go the way of Apple and force users into the way that you *think* we should do things. 
    <rant>
    While I whole heartedly agree with this suggestion, if you look through this blog about the design decisions that went into the 2007 ribbon:
    Jensen Harris: An Office User Interface Blog -
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jensenh/archive/2008/03/12/table-of-contents.aspx
    You'll see that one of the considerations of the ribbon was to ELIMINATE/REDUCE customization because it was costing large corporate customers too much time/money to support their users with 2003 customized menu/toolbars.  In other words, the ribbon
    was intentionally built as a fixed design so that average user cannot change it.  The QAT was an afterthought, a sop, to allow users minimal customization. 
    They found that the 2007 lock down was too much of a "good thing", too much like the good old "IBM 360 green screen" (even if most people don't recognize the reference), so in 2010 they
    re-introduced limited Ribbon customization within the UI.
    But you still can't customize the default tabs. And to add injury to insult, if you do want to customize a default tab and go to the effort of trying to recreate the default tabs and groups
    within the Ribbon UI, you'll eventually find that YOU CAN'T'! There is no way inside the UI to force the buttons to layout the same way! AHHH!
    Even in 2007,
    EXPERTS have had the option of creating custom Ribbons/tabs by editing XML, but that is pretty serious programming, out of scope for 99% of users.
    The "solution" to the problem was too simple. Just add an option to allow users to turn on the old menu UI.  Even if it had been buried as a registry hack, the people who really wanted it would have learned about it. Then MS could have collected statistics
    on usage that would have "proved" that the menu was preferred over the ribbon.  The thing is, if the ribbon was defaulted "out of the box", over time people would eventually all switch over to it. Simply because it was the default, because MS only produced
    new training material referring for the ribbon
    Now, I'll concede that the ribbon really may be more "intuitive", but only for new users. For long time users the change is very jarring.
    They made the same choice with Windows 8.  In the last Windows 8 consumer Preview there was a registry hack to bypass the Start Screen.  I learned about it in July or August. But MS was so sure the Start screen/metro was the only way to go they
    rushed out a Windows Update to eliminate that registry entry. And it was eliminated from the RTM version. 
    WHY?
    Why did they remove the user's right to chose the UI that worked best for them? I don't know.
    </end rant>  sorry, this is a hot button for me.

  • Right-Click Context Menu's Acrobat X Pro Missing

    Hello.  I have a user of Acrobat X Pro on Windows XP 32-bit system.  When they right-click, the context menu's are not there.  These menu's exist in my other 2 users Acrobat 9 right-click menu's.  Please help me to resolve getting the menu items to show up.  I have tried running regsvr to reload the ContextMenu.dll file and it succeeded but still nothing when right clicking.

    Via Hit and Miss, I discovered that the "blanks" in my right click context menu are actually the command buttons, just missing the text.  I tried everything, including the contextmenu.dll approaches but nothing worked.  I then highlighted a few PDF's, hit the blank bar in the context menu, and voila - Acrobat opened and put me into the "combine files" window.    Even right-clicking on a single JPG and then hitting the blank bar opens up the "add files into a PDF" window.
    Not a perfect fix but at least it gives me what I want!!

  • Reader 9 - "Print" and "Open with Adobe Reader..." options are missing from the right-click menus.

    Since upgrading from Reader 8 to Reader 9, Windows XP users are no longer able to right-click 1 or more PDF files from Windows Explorer and choose either "Print" or "Open with Adobe Reader...". Those options are no longer listed in the right-click menu. We have experienced this on several computers.  I downgraded a PC to Reader 8, and these options re-appeared, then disappeared again when I upgraded back to Reader 9.

    Could you tell me which version of Reader 9 you are installing?
    Please give the exact version it is showing you from Help | About Adobe Reader.

    Heyyo6789 depending upon the Adobe Creative software title installed the update mechanism in the menu bar may still be needed. 
    Thank you for the feedback.  This behavior will likely be changed in a future version of the Creative Cloud Desktop applications.  I would recommend referencing Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud app for desktop | Release Notes which is updated with features which have been added to the Creative Cloud Desktop application.

  • How to remove app designer migration access from the Developer id

    Team,
    Please guide me with steps to remove app designer migration access from the Developer id.

    Rgds,

    Did you already remove the other permission lists/roles you identified in your previous response like I told you to do in my first response?  The user can have no permission lists that grant this access.  Working with a clone of VP1 is a bad strategy.  Security should be handled from the bottom up, adding what is required for a user to perform their necessary functions.  Cloning VP1 and removing roles/permissions is security from the top down and will undoubtedly leave you with a user that is still granted more access than you like even after removing this particular access.  You should really be working with your companies security admin on this, they may have a standard way of doing this.  Many places I've been use custom roles and permission lists when deviating from the Oracle delivered security.
