ironman14 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hello,I have downloaded Adobe Reader 11 from tomasz86's Google Drive archive (link here); https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Bw_nt4aAJIoPOGtlWnU5MWgwd3M&tid=0Bw_nt4aAJIoPaWJsUXQ4NGdWdjQ#listIt installs great and launches, but after about 10-15 seconds after opening the program, it crashes. What should I do? I have the latest daily UURollup installed and that doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironman14 Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) Is this compatible with extended kernel/UURollup? Or just KDW?Sorry, haven't tried this yet. Edited December 24, 2013 by ironman14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomasz86 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I've got no time to check the issue at the moment... Do you really need to use Adobe Reader? I myself prefer Foxit Reader which works fine in Windows 2000 (or SumatraPDF if you don't need more advanced functionality). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironman14 Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 I don't really require Adobe Reader, it was just a familiar program. I could use Foxit reader if I find that I need a PDF program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointertovoid Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Throw away Acrobat and more generally everything from Adobe. Foxit is 60dB better.Did you notice that Acrobat launches together with Windows, so that Acrobat seems quick to start and Windows slow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironman14 Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 I have never really used Foxit reader, to be honest, but maybe I should try it. It seems to use WAY less disk space. The only real thing I need from Adobe is Flash, but Chrome (portable & full) plays Flash content by default. I even use Chrome on Windows 2000 myself.

tomasz86 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) For simple PDF viewing SumatraPDF is the fastest and lightest solution, but if you need more options (such as advanced printing settings) then I'd go for Foxit which I use myself. Foxit used to officially support Windows 2000 but I don't know whether it still does. SumatraPDF requires the unofficial kernel to run. I'd recommend downloading portable versions of both programs from PortableApps and trying them out yourself.
