I am trying to use the default programs app on the control pabel to set Acrobat 9.5 as the default viewer for pdf files. I also have Acrobat Reader DC installed. Neither program appears on the 'set your default programs' screen so I changed it on the file associations screen. But Reader DC is still opening the.pdf files by default. I checked back on the default programs app, and the associations screen still lists Reader DC as the default app. But when I click the change program button it asks me if I want to keep the association with Acrobat 9.5!
(see screenshot). This is very odd.
It's Acrobat Pro, not reader. To be honest, I'm not sure how reader DC got on there. But as I said in the original post, neither program shows up on the default programs list, which is puzzling. I suppose I could just uninstall Reader DC, but it's odd that it thinks I have changed the association (see screenshot) but the association hasn't in fact been changed.Acrobat Pro is paid version. Other thing is, Adobe Reader 9.5 not probably compatible with Windows 10 and to me it's unsafe to use a product like this that is out of date (security risks) as it's back from 2010 this version. You can open the properties of PDF file by right clicking it, select change then select appropriate program.
Truthfully you are better off with Adobe DC, newer and compatible, i use it with no issues as you are having, free version. I was having the same problem. You need to change all of the extensions to Acrobat, not just.pdf. There is also.fdf,.xfdf, etc. Go to Control PanelProgramsDefault ProgramsSet Default Programs and click on Reader, then click Choose defaults for this program at the bottom you'll see a list of the extensions that still have Reader as the default. They are checked but I wasn't able to make changes from that window - had to go back to the list of extensions and change each individually. Hope that helps.
Sorry, nevermind - I'm still having that same problem as you, cormanaz. Every other extension will switch to Acrobat except.pdf. If I can't figure it out relatively quickly, I'm just going to uninstall Reader.If you want to make Acrobat your default program for PDF files, you need to bring up Acrobat and go the Edit/Preferences and then select General. At the bottom of the page you will see 'Select Default PDF handler'. Click on this and select Acrobat instead of Acrobat Reader.
You will require a system reboot, but after that everything will be as you require.

I've uninstalled Adobe Reader and reinstalled it twice but to no avail. The PC that I'm having the problem with is Win10 Pro but the one that is set up exactly the same but doesn't have the problem is Win10 Home.
I wonder if that has anything to do with it.
