[oeckbert]

Hello,

i have one problem with the foxit reader. Is it possible to set the settings "default pdf viewer" and "show pdfs in the browser" with registry keys?
In the HKCU\Software\Foxit path i dont find any settings for this.

It woudl be nice if someone can help me.
Cheers

Sorry, it is no way to set it with registry keys, you should set it within Foxit Reader program.

Hi,

we use foxit on our citrix server and the problem is that "normal" user can not use the built in feature "set as default pdf viewer" because they need administrator rights to do this. Same problem for "show pdfs in browser". I dont know why, because on our pc devices all works fine with the "normal" user.

Hi oeckbert,

Please login as administrator then set the 'Set as default pdf viewer' and 'Show PDFs in browser' during the installation of Foxit Reader.
