Hi.

Recently i noticed that the checbox "Run in AppContainer" has disappeared from the Preferences.

I need activate this for compatibility with another app, but i can't find how.

Windows version is 19043.1110

Reader version is 2021.005.20058

Any suggestion will be apreciated.

Note: sorry for my english.

Hi defaultbz5ewe2gjt0a ,

Please ensure that "Protected Mode" checkbox is checked. (Edit >> Preferences >> Security (Enhanced) >> Enable Protected Mode).
As a workaround, you may enable the preference via registry :
HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Adobe\(productname)\(version)\FeatureLockdown
REG_DWORD bEnableProtectedModeAppContainer = 1
1. Are you running Adobe Reader is Windows 7 compatibility mode? To check this, right-click on Acrobat Reader's icon >> Properties >> Compatibility >> Run this program in compatibility mode for.

Just downloaded Acrobat 64bit

Files don't open by themselves. I must first open program as administator then find file and open it. Is there an easier and less time consuming way? Like clicking on file to open?

Thanks, joe
