I have just done the update of windows 10 and each time i want to edit with paint , it show a message C:\Users\My.png was not found showing a path to C users ? now whatever i try to change in the editor settings , i have the correct path C:\windows\system32\mspaint.exe the check box for Page/object editor and the image editor has the photoshop path. so that should be ok but ................ each time when i click to use paint to edit , is give me the message C: users.My.png was ..... it looks like the internal link is fixed to that C users path and can't be changed. It would be great to have this fixed as a lot of editting was done in paint , thank you in advance

The Page/Objecte editor would be something like Illustrator, that is vector based.  The image editor would either be Paint, Photoshop, or another rastor-based image editor.  See if this notion helps.

My best,

Dear Dave 

thank you for the message , but .......................... all what you say here are things i know.  My question was not about tell me what is what , but that it is impossible to use mspaint. The acrobat always shows next message when i click on edit with microsoft paint "C:\Users\My.png was not found"  and ofcourse at that address is no mspaint.exe 

I have tried to setup the path to mspaint  witch is located at "C:\windows\system32\mspaint.exe" in the editor settings , but no good , it looks like acrobat is frozen on the path to "C:\Users\My.png was not found"
