Nnn Vvv Posted December 16, 2021 Report Posted December 16, 2021 I reinstalled Windows 10 recently and I also reinstalled Nitro PDF on top of that. Now I'm trying to get my computer back to where it was... I used to be able to go to box.com in Chrome and from there I could select a PDF file, click on "..." (More Options) and do "Open With" -> "Nitro PDF". The PDF file would be downloaded and opened on my desktop with Nitro. It was very convenient. With my fresh install I don't see the "Nitro PDF" option. I just get two in-browser options. Does anybody know what can I do to get "Nitro PDF" back in the menu? I realize I could also open the box file from within Nitro PDF. I set that up and it's not what I want. I'm looking for a way to start from Chrome, box.com and then open Nitro. Not start from Nitro and open box. Thank you.
Nnn Vvv Posted December 16, 2021 Author Report Posted December 16, 2021 The File -> Open -> box.com integration into nitro is a nice feature. But the box.com web page in chrome gives me a better browsing experience with thumbnails of my various PDFs, change history and other features I use to select files. It also gives me a common starting point so that I can open spreadsheets, notes, images... in addition to PDFs through one interface. That's why I prefer starting from the browser rather than starting from Nitro.
Nnn Vvv Posted December 16, 2021 Author Report Posted December 16, 2021 Ok. Found what I wanted. Installing "Box Tools" (the second app listed here https://www.box.com/resources/downloads) gave me Nitro Pro as an option for opening PDFs directly from box.com.
