For about a week now, every time I opened a PDF document an annoying popup related to Adobe Reader X would appear.
Thankfully, an Adobe person provided a few workarounds to what seems to be a known issue since Adobe Acrobat/Reader 8. For my situation, I must have installed something that caused Adobe Acrobat/Reader X to think I had some type of assistive technology installed on my PC. The actual workaround I implemented was listed in the comments section of the blog post and it works well-so far.
Here are the steps:
- In a Windows Explorer window, navigate to
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\plug_ins
- Rename Accessibility.api to Accessibility.api.bk
- Rename ReadOutLoud.api to ReadOutLoud.api.bk
