Not opening in IE11; opening PDF-Xchange Editor iteself
Microsoft did a repair on my W8.1.1. Now PDFs do not open inside IE11. Instead they open in PDF-Xchange Editor.
Any ideas how to fix this?

That did not do it.
Also, The PDF-Xchange Editor plugin only appears under Plugins that do not need permission. It does not show under All Add-ons. Do I maybe need to re-install?

Hi Bruce,
Yes - please do uninstall, reboot, then download and install the Editor from the latest installation package:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/downloads
And this should help!

That did not help. The plugin is still showing in the "Run Without Permissions" addons. And the .PDFs open in PDF-Xchange Viewer, not IE11.
Also, I am trying to open a .PDF that is on my SSD. This worked fine before Microsoft repaired my Windows 8.1.1

I would really appreciate a fix for .PDFs not opening inside IE11. Plugin is there in Run without Permissions and enabled. I get an empty tab and the .PDF opens in PDF-Xchange Editor.

Now Outlook 2013 is telling me there is no viewer installed to display a .PDF attachment in the email.

Can you try to set view in IE, and register preview handler as shown on the screenshot?

Still not working.
I just uninstalled and then deleted the Tracker folder, rebooted, and re-installed PDF Tools which includes PDF-Xchange Editor.
