01JunSpeedup Your Adobe Acrobat Reader as Fast as Notepad !

Don’t you often get irritated when your acrobat reader takes 5/10 seconds to load when you want to open a pdf document?

Here is The way to speed up the loading.

1. Go to the installation folder of acrobat reader
Most of the times its C:\program files\adobe\acrobat\reader\... whatever

2. Move all the files and folders from the “plug_ins” directory to the “Optional” directory.
(Just… cut and paste the files NOT copy & paste).

Make sure that acrobat reader is not open else it will lock the files and not allow you to move the files.

Now run your acrobat reader the adobe installer will run once to apply the changes you made and then your acrobat reader will load very fast and almost as fast as notepad.

    I just learnt that Adobe Acrobat reader 9 is announced along with Acrobat.com.
    I visited it. Contains great features. But i got somewhat confused. But i got detailed information about it later here - Adobe introduces Acrobat 9 & Acrobat.com
    It also contains detailed and fabulous review of Acrobat 9 and Acrobat.com which was very helpful.
