Adobe .pdfs all opening minimized in taskbar

Community Beginner ,
Feb 07, 2020 Feb 07, 2020

This is a new issue.  Any .pdf file that I open is now opening minimized in the taskbar.  I don't want to have to click on the taskbar every time I open a .pdf.  This hasn't happened until very recently, like started last week.  I don't know that it's a document setting (properties, initial view), as that hasn't changed, and I haven't had this problem until this week.  Thanks!!

Hi, 

 

I 'm not sure if unchecking the option "Restore last view settings when reopning documents would help with anything but you can try in Edit, Preferences, Documents.

 

If you have macOS see here: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/work-with-app-windows-mchlp2469/mac

 

If you use Windows 10, right click on the icon of the Acrobat app, select Properties from the context menu; the properties dialogue box will open up in the "Shortcut" tab.

 

See where it says "Run". It has a dropdown menu with options always open minimized, maximized, or normal. Click OK when done.

Thank you so much! Every time I was opening a pdf recently it defaulted to a small window in middle of my screen. By changing the run setting to maximize, it now opens full screen the way I like it. Couldn't find this help anywhere else.
