Default Can't open PDF files

I downloaded a program last week called Flash Slider and it worked great, but I noticed since then that I can't open up PDF files in Outlook. I don't know if the 2 events are related as I don't recall being able to open them afterward --- it could be another reason and just a coincidence. I can open up PDF files outside of Outlook.

Have you uninstalled Flash Slider to see if the .pdf files work in Outlook again...

You can try to use Final Uninstaller to uninstall Flash Slider. It can completely remove all leftover files and registry entries of the program. maybe fix this problem

Hey Marv,

Welcome to PCHF. We have a great team of techs, as well as a wonderful community of helpful folks here, as you have already seen, , ty to Arctos, and hsly.

If I understand you correctly, PDF is not loading when you doubleclick on a PDF file from within Outlook, but outside of Outlook the program loads, and you can see the files.

Have you tried doing an Office Repair? From within Outlook, click on Help, and choose Detect and Repair. Make sure Restore My Shortcuts is selected, and deselect Discard my customized settings..., unless you want to redo any and all settings and rules.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

TTFN

LGW
