NickC Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Good day all. I am experiencing an issue with my user's when attempting to open a PDF from a network path, the application opens but only to a gray screen. Even when trying to browse to the pdf file it still will not open it. If we move it to the desktop, the file will open. Any ideas? We're using Nitro Pro 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order for me to further assist you with your concern, could you please send me a private message and provide the following?: -The serial number of your Nitro Pro and its build (format is 11.X.X.X, e.g. 11.0.7.411). You can find these out by clicking on 'About Nitro Pro' under the Help tab -Does this happen with every file? If it's a single file, please send us the sample file (with sensitive information extracted) so I can replicate it on my end -Where are the files saved (local, a shared drive or an external drive) when you’re trying to open? Can you check if you have the same issue when the file is saved locally? Thank you very much in advance and I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

NickC Posted December 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 @RogerHart The issue is related to a known bug with the version we're using. The issue has been fixed with version 12... which I am now trying to get approved in our environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerHart Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Latest Nitro Pro 12.6.1.298 is the version we are using on new Windows 10 Pro 64bit systems. With the IE Plugin, I can open a file by putting the path in the browser such as c:\temp\myfilename.pdf and open the pdf in the IE browser. If I click on the Edit This Pdf button the editor opens. I can then save the file to a network drive mapped location. ie: U: drive which is \\someservername\somesharename. When I go to open the file from the U: drive it opens in IE. However, upon clicking Edit This PDF nothing happens. It's like the call doesn't exist. The security rights should be good as I Saved the file. Any suggestions? I need to make movement on this or find another solution. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippy_tails Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 We're having this same problem with 1 user, on version 11.05. This just started happening after refreshing Windows on a new hard drive. Problem appears related to permission of the local users as it fails for the assigned user (not a local admin), but works for my account (domain admin). Otherwise, opening files from networked shares via mapped drives works normally for Adobe Reader DC and Chrome (with PDF viewer). All Windows and Office security, "critical", and "important" updates are applied and up-to-date. Prior to installing, the serial number was deactivated on the old system, and activated on the new system. Upgrading to version 11.08 (where this problem is supposed to have been fixed) fails, even with admin permissions and elevation on Windows 7 Pro, SP1. Uninstalled version 11 and tested with version 12 (trial) where it works normally, completely as expected. Of course our version 11 license serial number will not work for version 12. Giving the assigned user of this PC local admin rights to simply open PDFs across the network is an unacceptable solution, and is not considered best security practice due to risk of malware infection. Please tell me we don't have to shell out another license fee for a version 12 upgrade to fix this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
