ARF 1 Report post Posted July 16 HI, the debug file is created when opening the pdf. If you send me your email address I can send you a sample PDF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tsu 0 Report post Posted July 20 Hello Leslie, for me the same happens. Since update to 12.16.3.574 the debug.log file is installed at opening some pdf files. The log file includes: "[0716/163632.913:ERROR:mf_helpers.cc(14)] Error in dxva_video_decode_accelerator_win.cc on line 511". So please check this and I hope you can give an answer to this. Thank you in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

farley 0 Report post Posted July 26 We have having the same issue. Just upgraded multiple clients to Nitro Pro 12.16.3.574 and opening a file on a network share results in the creation of a debug.log file. The file is 0KB in size. Has anyone found a solution?

tsu 0 Report post Posted August 8 Hello Leslie, is there any progress in investigating the topic regarding "debug.log" ? Thanks for your reply. Thomas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leslie V. 0 Report post Posted August 8 Hello, This issue has only been recently discovered and it is still being investigated. So far we have found that it only occurs in 12.16.3.574, and only when opening scanned files (specifically when the 'OCR' notification pops up ~see attached). Can you confirm this is the same on your end? If so, the current workaround is to deselect (turn off) "in-product messages" (also attached) via File > Preferences > Notifications. Kindly let us know if this works for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tsu 0 Report post Posted August 9 Hello Leslie, from my point of view I can confirm, that the debug.log file is not created, when I deselect the "in-product messages". Super. I am not 100% sure, if the file is only beeing created, when I open a scanned file, but most probably it is as you explained. Because I open many pdf-files in a day and I do not have that much "debug.log" files. For me I feel quite well, because deselecting the "in-product messages" does not influence my work, because I never use the OCR-functionality directly after scanning a document so the message was more or less disturbing me and I did not know how to deselect it. Thanks for your help. Thomas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike R 0 Report post Posted August 20 (edited) I am seeing this issue as well. Is there a way to deselect "Show in-product messages" from the registry? Thanks, Mike Edited August 20 by Mike R Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steven Zakulec 59 Report post Posted August 21 Yes- you'll want to set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Nitro\Pro\12\Settings\Preferences\kPreferences\kPrefProductMsgs to /b 0 Hope that helps! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike R 0 Report post Posted August 23 Steven, that reg key isn't working for me. None of my machines have Nitro in the HKCU\Software\ path. I have HKLM\Software\Nitro\Pro\12\Settings\Preferences\kPreferences\ and if I create the kPrefProductMsgs /b 0 string value, it works, unless you change it manually from the Preferences>Notification window and then it stays.

darnold 0 Report post Posted August 27 I also have this issue with my newly installed trial of 12.16.3.574 on Win10 Pro. My debug.log files are empty. Above fixes seem to have only temporary effect (or none at all). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMVA 0 Report post Posted August 27 I'm also observing a debug.log file being created every time i open a pdf file. For example, i create a pdf with Nitro and when i open that file a debug.log file is created. Disabling "show in-product messages" did not change the behavior. I'm using a trial version of Nitro Pro 12 (12.16.3.574) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beat 0 Report post Posted Monday at 05:35 PM I have the same issue with Nitro Pro 12.16.3.574 which is very annoying. Whenever I open a PDF with scanned content, an empty debug.log file is created. I created the registry entry as mentioned by Steven Zakulec above, but still the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leslie V. 0 Report post Posted Tuesday at 03:09 PM Hello @Beat There are three separate known workarounds: 1. Turn off “Show In-product messages” via File > Preferences > Notifications 2. Open Nitro before opening a scanned file 3. Upgrade to version 13, this has been fixed in the current version. Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
