Acrobat Nag

Can you turn off the nag question Acrobat 8 keeps asking to be the default pdf viewer every time it is launched?

Can you post a screenshot of the nag dialog box?

If I remember, simply clicking "no" turned it off for me and it never came back.

No, that doesn't help on my work or home mac. Every time it launches... making me insane!

So... about that screenshot... is that a "no," you won't post one?

Also, are you running under an administrator account when you're presented that dialog box, or another type of account?

Yes, select "Default" or check the "don't ask me this again" box in that window that pops up.

I'm having the same problem, and there's no such option (see attachment).

Default application is not the same as default viewer problem the OP had, but ...
That setting should also be in Acrobat preferences...

Does that window come back if you choose Yes instead of No?

I'll try that and report back on Monday, for now it's weekend
