    How can I get .PDF files to preview in Windows Explorer & Outlook?

    Suggests something left over from an early installation, or perhaps an old version of Adobe? Is yours current?

    Notice there's something odd following it - pdf' ?

    Earlier I gave you an article showing the relevant registry keys and how a preview handler is registered. If you were to follow those through you might find a rogue entry- try searching the registry for
    'Handler for Vista'

  3. PDF Previews in Outlook 2010 Stopped Suddenly

    Windows was updated yesterday with an Excel Update. There were also some other program updates, including Malwarebytes. I am not sure which update did something, but now previewing a PDF in Outlook 2010 does not work at all. I get PDF Preview Handler errors. I know this isn't an Outlook forum but I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this.

    Thanks.

    Can´t preview pdf in Outlook.

    How can I get .PDF files to preview in Windows Explorer & Outlook?

    To get clear, yes I did reboot the system. Still doesn't work.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I have recently uninstalled Adobe Acrobat DC and Re-installed it.

    Interestingly, I have at least managed to change what the message in Outlook says. It now says that there is an error with the "PDF Preview Handler".

    Preview Handler Association Editor lists nothing associated with "Adobe PDF Preview Handler for Vista". There are various entried talking about PDF.

    Fiw, I can't see any other Registered Handlers that look relevent either.
