Hi,

 

The link below is a manual instruction to make Adobe Reader DC, default PDF viewer.

This could be a good solution for home users but not corporate environments.

 

I see that the issue has also been raised at the following links;

Re: PDF files open in Microsoft Edge (E PDF) and not Adobe

Adobe Reader DC default for Windows 10.

 

I have tested various methods (registries, imports of AdobeReaderDC.XML by means of DISM, etc) but unfortunately this is not a solution.

 

The methods in the following links offer no solution;

Is there a solution to make Adobe Reader DC default PDF viewer through a scipt?

 

My test scope:

  • Windows 1703 and later
  • Adobe Reader DC 18.011.20035
  • Adobe Reader DC 18.011.20040 (last version)
