Right click on any PDF documents, select Properties, on the General tab, find "Open With," there's the default program name next to it, as well as the button "Change." Click on Change and pick the right program from the list.
I installed Abode Acrobat 6.0 Standard software and now it makes itself the default to open up all PDF documents I click on when I'm browsing the web. I prefer that Acrobat Reader 7.0 open my PDF documents because Abode Acrobat 6.0 takes too long to start up.
I tried to change the association by saving a PDF document to my hard drive, right clicking it, and choosing Acrobat Reader to open it up, at the same time clicking "Always use the selected program" to open up PDF documents. After that, Acrobat Reader 7.0 opens up the PDF documents I have saved on my hard drive, but Abode Acrobat 6.0 still opens up PDF documents from the web.When I try to right click a PDF document on the web to change the association, the option to "open with" does not appear. I'd appreciate any help to solve this problem.
I have Windows XP Professional and use Internet Explorer as my browser.
