Solve : How do I change version of Acrobat used to access PDFs using Chrome??

Answer»

The problem: I have (and need) Acrobat Writer 5.1, but also Acrobat Reader 8 as 5.1 is too old to open many PDF files. I recently had to reinstall Acrobat Writer 5.1, which then meant the computer has been using it as a default to (try to) open PDF files. I have reset Reader 8 as the default program for the .pdf extension via Windows EXPLORER, but this seems to have no effect on either IE or Chrome (which is my primary BROWSER). I read in the FAQ about using "Save As", but the page I am desperately trying to access (a secure online ticket) tries to AUTOMATICALLY open without any save as option.

How do I change which version of Acrobat is USED to open PDFs on the web in Chrome?

The computer: A buggy, slow HP Compaq 6710b notebook running XPTry Foxit...you don't have to remove either Adobe to give it a trial run.
I'd be interested to see if it will open older 5.1 PDF's as well...

Did i mention it's FREE ? ?
