PDF error
I can't read 'pdf' attachments to my Outlook Express mail. I get an Error Message "This message does not have a program associated with it"
However, I can save the message to my computer 'My Documents' and it then opens fine with Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader is associated with 'pdf' files in Control Panel - Folder Options.
Does anyone have advice
METHOD 1:
One of the first reason is that the extension isn't associated with the program, but that is not the case at your end as you told.
In such a scenario, the next problem that may cause the issue is if the Open verb is missing for that
file type.
- Click Start, Run and type CONTROL FOLDERS
- In the Folder Options applet that opens, select the File Types tab
- Scroll down and locate the entry for PDF and select it.
- Click Advanced
- Click the New button
- Type Open in the the Action: text box
- In the Application used to perform action: field, type the
following exactly:
""C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" "%1"
NOTE: The path given here may be different for you. Ensure that you find the correct AcroRd32.exe for the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader on your system. - Uncheck the Use DDE box
- Click OK, OK
- Close the Folder Options dialog
METHOD 2:
Reinstall the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader.
