Windows 10: I use Blue Beam Revu to view and edit pdf’s. It appears that the “Convert Files to Revu”...

The snipping tools Stapler setting does not appear to have a pdf option listed in the Active Converters anymore. Has the pdf converter been intentionally removed. Is there a way to get it back.

Opening .pdf using Blue Beam Revu - Error 0x800701B: Access is denied.

Hello

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

The error message "0x800701B: Access is denied" you're encountering while attempting to open a PDF file using Bluebeam Revu through Autodesk Docs suggests a permissions issue. Despite being the system administrator, there could be various reasons why you're facing this issue.

Can you tell me what your system version is? System version: Win + R key, and type "winver", press Enter.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem:

1. Check File Permissions: Ensure that the file permissions for the PDF you're trying to access are correctly set. Right-click on the file, go to 'Properties', and then the 'Security' tab. Verify that your user account has the necessary permissions to read and modify the file.
   
2. File Location: If the PDF is located on a network drive, shared folder, or cloud storage, ensure that the network path is accessible and that your account has the necessary permissions to access the file from that location.
   
3. Bluebeam Revu Settings: Open Bluebeam Revu and check if there are any specific settings or restrictions that might be preventing the file from opening. Ensure that Bluebeam is configured correctly to access files from Autodesk Docs.
   
4. Antivirus or Firewall Settings: Sometimes, antivirus software or firewalls can block access to certain files or applications. Check your antivirus and firewall settings to ensure they're not preventing Bluebeam Revu from accessing the PDF file.
   
5. Run as Administrator: Try running Bluebeam Revu as an administrator. Right-click the Bluebeam Revu shortcut and select 'Run as administrator'. This can sometimes bypass permission issues.
   
6. System Permissions: Since you mentioned being the system administrator, ensure that there are no domain policies or group policies in place that might be restricting access to the file or application.
   
7. And you may Perform a clean boot (microsoft.com) to see if it is normal, this is a troubleshooting step. In this mode, we can further confirmed whether it is caused by system problems or third-party software or personalized Settings. So please be patient.
   
   Disclaimer: A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps to determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program and to isolate the cause of a problem.
   
   These steps of "clean boot" might look complicated at first glance. However, to avoid any trouble for you, please follow them in order and step-by-step so that it will help you get you back on track.
   

If none of these steps resolve the issue, consider reaching out to Bluebeam Revu's support team for more specialized assistance, as they might be able to provide more detailed troubleshooting steps specific to their software.

If there is anything not clear or I can't understand your problem, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Hello,

I just downloaded bluebeam revu (my preferred pdf viewer/editor), and something within the PC is not allowing me to use the application. I've followed numerous forums and got no results. Please advise.
