Question about 'Prevent Programs From Changing Your File Types' Wednesday, September 21, 2005 at 10:35 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by pscowboy (11 messages posted) I'm using Acrobat Reader 6.04 to view pdf files; mainly, attachments in Outlook Express. The executable is acrord32.exe which is the default in file associations. This goes along fine for about 5 days when, suddenly while clicking a pdf, I get an error saying it can't find acroread.exe. I have to re-associate acrord32 in file associations to get it working again (I do click apply and then ok). About 5 days later, the same problem surfaces, and I have to re-associate. This has been going on now for about two months during which I've had to redo about 10 times. It's annoying, it's a hassle, and I'd like to know how to stop it.
