    Hi gsvan,

    All the functionalities in general are supported when protected mode is enabled.

    Disabling protected mode will reduce the security . Why is the need to disable protected mode at your end?

    Thanks,

    Dragon NaturalySpeaking software doesn't work on FireFox in with Reader in Protected Mode.

     

    I see no hope for the future of our people if they are dependent on the frivolous youth of today, for certainly all youth are reckless beyond words. When I was a boy, we were taught to be discreet and respectful of elders, but the present youth are exceedingly disrespectful and impatient of restraint.
