    Hi julianr99886804,

    Could you please try following steps?

    1- Open Control Panel>search Folder Options>click Restore Defaults under each of General, View, and Search tabs.

    2- Search for Internet Options under Control Panel>click Advanced tab>Reset (you might try resetting IE without selecting "Delete personal settings" first).

    3- Launch Reader>click Edit>Preferences>General>click Select As Default PDF Handler>OK

    4- Reboot the machine.

    Let me know if it worked.

    Thank You,

    Shivam

    Thanks Shivam

    I went through these steps but no luck. Same result "the file can't be previewed".

    Any other way ?
