Still unable to print using ie11 adobe plugin, w10 2004/20H2
I have users that are still encountering the issue that has been happening with the adobe plug in and ie11 since May. Clicking the print option on the on-screen adobe toolbar of an open PDF in ie11 results in nothing happening. This is affecting users on the 2004 and the 20H2 update. The users are running the newest version of Adobe Reader as well.
- Disabling the plugin is not an option. Although it is a workaround for printing pdfs from ie11, we have a program that uses embedded adobe printing functions I guess, and users can not print from the program even with the plugin disabled(which makes sense as the plugin would only affect ie11).
- Disabling protected mode at startup in adobe settings is absolutely not an option. We should not have to disable default security settings in order for basic functions to work properly. I saw some people stating on similar posts that this setting was not enabled by default in prior versions of Windows, however I have multiple machines running prior versions of Windows that did in fact have this setting enabled by default.
- Switching the default viewer to edge/chrome is not an option either due to compatability issues with some websites/programs.
Is there any progress on this issue yet? The only true workaround so far for us was to rollback affected users and prevent their PCs from updating to 2004, which is obviously not possible forever.
