Please suggest the way to change .pdf association at every start-up.

[Apelcine]

My company has a default profile which is include Reader association and is refreshed at every restart.

Is there a easy "user-rights" way to change automatically the pdf association to Acrobat which i am using for work?

Hey there, 

If I understand your requirement correctly, then you are willing to change the .pdf file association to Acrobat DC to make it a default PDF viewer rather than Adobe Reader DC. Is that correct?

We'd like to suggest a few things here-

1- Set Acrobat as default PDF viewer, following the instruction given here: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/not-default-pdf-owner-windows10.html

2- Keep your Windows up-to-date. If system is keep switching back to Reader as default app, its most likely the system isn't able save the default settings.

3- Acrobat DC is a paid product and its an enhanced version of Reader DC, which  includes all of its features and more than that. Keep only one installed, Acrobat DC and remove freeware Reader DC to keep it simple.

Hope this makes the things better.

Thanks,

Akanchha
