How do you change the "Trust this document" status of a PDF file?

Post by kt »

Hello,

I have some password-protected PDFs to which I have added pages using Nuance software. Upon opening them with PDF-XChange Editor, I get this message:

"Unauthorized alteration of this protected document has been detected and suspicious content has been blocked."

The "Options" dropdown menu gives me a choice of "Trust this document one time only" and "Trust this document always."

Where is this choice stored? I would like to check to see which documents I have marked as "Trust this document always," and and I'd like to revoke that authorization.

Thank you,

kt

Hello kt,

You can manage those files from the Preferences Window (Ctrl + K) -> Security -> Trusted/Untrusted list.
Or in the registry those are stored under
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Settings\Security\OpenBWList

Kind regards,
Stefan

Thank you, Stefan.

I found the PDF files in the registry and deleted them.
