Hi everyone
After I have upgraded to Adobe Reader XI, I not longer can find the checkbox under settings>Internet, where I can disable that Adobe Reader XI viewing PDF-files in my browser.
If I instead press on the button, I can see in the dialog box Adobe refers to an article there give me instruction to turn off the viewing of PDF-files via my browser settings. When I follow these instructions, I can see that the plug-in to Adobe is disabled when I not viewing PDF-files in my browser, and enabled when I viewing PDF-files in my browser.
Therefore:
My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit, and my browser is Internet Explorer 8.
Very thanks.
Regards,
Boholdt

Hi again
I have read the article, but I can still not find the plugin I should
disable in Internet Explorer 8.
If I see a PDF-file in my browser, I can select and disable a plugin called
PDF Adobe Reader, but next time I open Internet Explorer 8, I not can see
the plugin.
Another method is between the guide for accessibility
(edit>Accessibility>Setup Assistant. On screen number 4, you can find the
checkbox.
Since I am blind, I can find the assistant.
For my interessting, it is possible for sighted users of Adobe Reader to
find the same assistant?
Very thanks.
Regards
Boholdt

2. Click on Tools menu > Manage Add-ons
3. Select "Toolbars and Extensions" under "Add-on Types"
4. Select "Run without permission" from the drop-down menu under "Show"
5. Select ""Adobe PDF Reader"
6. Click on the "Disable" button

If you follow Adobe instructions, they just advise to disable the IE PDF add-on.
Some PC’s we have found still open in a browser even when the PDF browser add-on is disabled.
Disabling using Adobe Reader Accessibility assitant fixed the problem.
FYI – If you want to push this setting via a reg file/command line/GPO I found the registry key which needs to be created:
reg add “HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\Originals” /v bBrowserIntegration /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
or using a .reg file:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\Originals]
“bBrowserIntegration”=dword:00000000

When I disable a pdf opening in Internet Explorer, my computer still attempts to do that. Also saving files, it wants to view the saved file in IE. How do I stop this and get the actual Adobe software to work??? I am not a computer expert, you are going to have to tell me where to put the registery info. I don't see "reg file/commad line /GPO. Need more info please.

But none of that works for IE 11. All the Adobe extensions are disabled, yet it continually opens the PDFs in IE.

With Acrobat XI the only solution is to completely remove the browser integration. After installing the product.
msiexec.exe /i{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-AB0000000001} REMOVE=ReaderBrowserIntegration /q
BTW thank you for making it easy to find.

Hi, I'll preface this by saying that although I'm pretty computer-savvy, I'm no techie. I upgraded to Adobe Acrobat Pro DC and this is precisely what happened to me as well. As soon as I upgraded my files immediately began being opened in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC but through Internet Explorer, so I assumed the upgraded program had been made my default. It apparently wasn't though, as once I went into to manually set it as default the problem was immediately corrected. Maybe you've already tried that but if not give it a try!
