iFilter: Conflicts between Adobe and PDF-XChange?

Post by Peter2 »

Hi

on my PC there are two iFilter for PDF:
==================================================
Dateiname : AcroRdIF.dll
Beschreibung : PDF Filter
Produktname : PDF IFilter
Dateiversion : 9.5.1.283
Version : 9.5.1.283
Anbieter : Adobe Systems, Inc.
Pfad : C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRdIF.dll
CLSID1 : {F6594A6D-D57F-4EFD-B2C3-DCD9779E382E}
CLSID2 : {E8978DA6-047F-4E3D-9C78-CDBE46041603}
Registry-Uhrzeit : 08.10.2010 08:34:31
==================================================

==================================================
Dateiname : XCShInfo.dll
Beschreibung : PDF-XChange PDF IFilter Handler
Produktname : PDF-XChange Shell Extention
Dateiversion : 2.5.0205.0000
Version : 2.5
Anbieter : Tracker Software Products (Canada) Ltd.
Pfad : C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\Shell Extensions\XCShInfo.dll
CLSID1 : {DDA60C00-9937-453d-99E4-15967383ACE8}
CLSID2 : {1AC7939A-F487-4C8D-97AA-062FCA5DFA3C}
Registry-Uhrzeit : 15.08.2012 10:44:14
==================================================
I tried to integrate this search-feature into TotalCommander and used a Plugin which includes this tool:
http://files.rsdn.ru/51280/GetTextIFilter.rar

It works fine with AutoCAD-files, but hangs with PDF-files - where I have two iFilters for one extension.

To make it short:
Is it possible that the installation of 2 iFilters for the same file-extension causes troubles?

Regards

Hi Peter,

Did you try to remove one of the iFilters and see if that will work?

Best,
Stefan

This was my idea, but how to remove?
Rename of the DLL? Too simple?
Deinstall the entire software? Too complex?

Hi Peter,

Try with renaming the .dll at first and see if that will help.

Cheers,
Stefan
