Hi, I finally bit the bullet a couple of days ago and started using OneDrive as a way to access my docs from anywhere. Immediately upon setting it up and moving my docs to the cloud, I have been unable to open any PDF on my laptop. I tried opening multiple files (to rule out file corruption as an issue) and nothing happens. Nada. No little wheel, no error message, nothing. Same deal if I try to open Acrobat Reader DC itself. I also have no 'Open with' right button options available so opening online (I use Chrome) isn't a work-around.
I did follow a solution post on this forum from last year which advised 1) install the Adobe cleaner; 2) Remove the program; 3) Reboot and install a fresh copy from Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution. Unfortunately didn't work. Zero change to my situation.
Could the problem be with Windows 10 / OneDrive itself? That was my gut feel (I don't believe in coincidences) but I remember having a PDF problem years ago, calling Microsoft, them insisting it was definitely an Adobe problem and yep. Turned out to be a Microsoft problem. Just lining my ducks up with you guys before I call MS.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,
Damian
