PDF-XChange Viewer Plugin Does Not Work in Internet Explorer

Post by BazzaBoy »

I have just downloaded and installed the latest version of PDF-XChange Viewer. I have made it my default PDF Viewer and also ckecked the 'Display PDF in Browser' checkbox in the Preferences.

However, I am still not able to see the PDFs in Internet Explorer. I have ensured that the plugin is enabled in the IE Manage Addons Section.

In Firefox, it works beautifully.

I use Windows XP - Home (SP2).

Thanks for any advice.

I am also using IE7 on Windows XP Home SP2 and it works fine, so I wonder what is different? Do you have the latest version of PDF-XChange Viewer — 2.0.0038.1 ? Check for updates.

I have Free Version 2.0 (Build 38.1). Yes, the same as your's. And yes, I am using IE7.

So, what's different?

It works on my system, but not on yours. :D

Could it be the file that is causing the problem?

Try this one

When you say that it doesn't work, what happens exactly? Nothing at all? Do you get a blank page?

Well, it all seems to be working OK now. Previously, I had upgraded my version through the software. I uninstalled it, actually downloaded the latest version from the website and installed it.

Now it is all OK. But I still wonder what went wrong in the first place.

Many thanks for your help.
