    Hello,

    Since last few days, some pdf files are unable to preview and open. Screen shot below.

    PDF Preview is not working and Adobe does not open the file either. Also, the Location of... 7fffdb1e-5141-4059-b597-2adcb471e9db?upload=true.png

    It happens if I am moving the pdf files from one location to other. Such as from Download ( C Drive ) to Personal (E Drive). However, In C Drive the files preview works and opens too. But, as I am moving it does not perform either of those.

    When I checked with the file properties, the location is not proper. See below.

    PDF Preview is not working and Adobe does not open the file either. Also, the Location of... 11e8d276-8f8f-46c8-99bb-0de396faa996?upload=true.png
    How can I fix the issue ?

    :)

  2. 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.

    Hi Tresfjording,

    To assist you better I would like to know which Window 10 build is installed on the system?

    To check Windows version, press Windows key + R, type
    winver
    and press Enter.


    Meanwhile, let’s try simple troubleshooting steps and check if this helps in resolving the issue. Follow the below methods.

    Method 1.

    At first, I suggest you to check if any Windows update is pending.


    • Type update on the Windows search bar and select
      Check for updates.


    • Now click on Check for updates button, it will automatically check for the Windows update if any update is pending.
    Method 2.

    If that does not helps, let’s select adobe to open the PDF files.


    • Right-click any PDF file.

    • Click on Properties and under
      Open With click Change.

    • Now select Adobe from the list and click
      Ok.

    • Check if Adobe opens all the PDF files.
    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.
