Problems with LiveCycle and Adobe Reader x

Avatar

I recently had Adobe Reader X installed on my computer, and now when I use the Preview tab in LiveCycle the form opens in Reader X. I would like the form to open in Acrobat 9 Pro as it did before. How do I change that?

Regards,

There is a registry setting that determines what is your default viewer. You can either reinstall Acrobat (the last one in sets the setting) or you can modify this registry key to point to your Acrobat exe file:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe

If it's not there create a string value and point it to which exe you want to launch

For example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"

Hope that helps

I had Adobe Reader X uninstalled and now just manage without it.
