Hi all,
I have a laptop, Win XP, SP2, IE7. I installed Acrobat Reader 8.1.2. After experiencing
some odd behavior (will open new post if I can't resolve) I uninstalled Acrobat Reader.
After some tweaking and after I was -fairly- convinced that all was well I reinstalled
Acrobat Reader; however, none of my PDF files show the Acrobat logo icon next to
them, instead, the generic Windows file icon is present. Acrobat Reader will open
if I double click the PDF file.
I opened My Computer and proceeded to Tools/Folder options/Filetypes, selected
the PDF file type, clicked the Advanced Button, followed up by clicking the Change
Icon Button, navigated to where the AcroRd32.exe file was located, clicked Ok on
various dialogs to get back to the main My Computer window.
I then closed the My Computer window, reopened it, navigated to a folder where I have
PDF files and found that the generic icon remains. I rebooted the laptop, but that did
not help any. Is there something else that I am missing? Thanks!
