Trouble Opening PDF's

Hi Parker,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We will assist you in resolving the issue.



Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

• Does the issue persist in Edge browser?
• Do you get similar error when you open the PDF file in Adobe reader?

Check if you are facing similar issue in Edge browser.



Step 1: Open PDF file in Adobe reader and check if you are facing similar issue.



To open PDF file directly from Adobe reader, follow the steps below:

• Open Adobe application and click on Edit.
• Click on Preferences and select Internet.
• Uncheck Display PDF in Browser option and check if you are able to open the PDF file without getting the error code.

Step 2: If you are able to open PDF file in Adobe reader, I suggest you to
Turn off Internet Explorer,
enable it again and check if the issue is resolved.



For further assistance, I suggest you to post your query in Adobe support forum.

Thank you.

 

Open FTP site Via File Explorer

I use these steps:

To create a shortcut to open an FTP site in Windows Explorer

• 
  Open Computer by clicking the Start button
  
  , and then clicking Computer.
  
• 
  Right-click anywhere in the folder, and then click Add a Network Location.
  
• 
  This displays the Add Network Connection wizard. Click Next.
  
• 
  In the wizard, select Choose a custom network location, and then click Next.
  
• 
  Enter the name of the FTP site, with the full FTP:// in front of it, and then click Next.
  
• 
  To use a name and password, clear the Log on anonymously check box. Type a user name, and then click Next.
  
• 
  By default, the name of the shortcut is the same as the FTP address. If you want to give the shortcut a different name, type it in the Type a name for this network location box. Click Next.
  
• 
  If you do not want the FTP site to open after you're done setting up the shortcut, clear the Open this network location when I click Finish check box. Click Finish. A shortcut to
  the FTP site appears in the Computer folder. You can drag that shortcut to your desktop so that it's easy to find later.
  

I use my phone as FTP server and connect to PC via Router.

These step working perfectly in WIn7. But since i upgraded to Win10. I am not able to open the FTP site into File Explorer. FTP site opening perfectly in Browser. I also tried View> Open FTP in File Explorer. But nothing happened after clicking that link
option.

 

Problems opening PDF in Edge

I had saved several printed several files off of the internet to pdf and have not experienced any issues until today. I tried to open a file and received the following message.

Couldn’t open PDF

Something’s keeping this PDF from opening.

• Go back to the last page

I went to several other files that I have done this way previously and was no longer able to open them as well which is causing a serios issue. I have tried to open the file in other formats but have had no luck. Any suggestions?
