PDF question? How do I change my computer so that I may be able to doubleclick on a PDF file to open it...?

instead of right clicking on the PDF and choosing ';open with Adobe'; Seems to cause problems with Downloaded Adobe clips. Some times right clicking on the PDF only shows and option to ';open'; and then it opens in WordPDF question? How do I change my computer so that I may be able to doubleclick on a PDF file to open it...?
Download and install the Free Foxit PDF Reader from the link in the source.



on running for the first time it will ask if you want Foxit to be the default PDF reader on your computer. Select Yes



and walla you have Double Clickable PDF FilesPDF question? How do I change my computer so that I may be able to doubleclick on a PDF file to open it...?
I've used PDF files for many years, and never had one open in Word. Word cannot read PDF. Do you have Adobe Reader? If not, why not go the easier route and get Foxit Reader, a very small, very fast and efficient reader. It will open a PDF while Adobe is still trying to load.

The only ';change'; to your computer is adding this very important little piece of software.
Right click on the pdf file go to properties there click on change button placed in front of opens with:.It opens a list of program there click on adobe reader and click ok. If you didn't find adobe reader click on browse then go to folder where you installed adobe reader there find AcroRd32.exe file click on it and click open and you'll return to program list and click ok. This should do the job
