Adobe Acrobat Speedup Tweak

As we all know Acrobat Reader takes ages to open. This has been a pain ever since I've been using Acrobat!!

Today while going through one of the Slashdot posts, I came across this tweak for Acrobat.

Adobe Logo
  1. Go to the Adobe Acrobat program directory (just do a Windows Search for the Acrord32.exe file and when you get the results, right-click on the file and select 'Open Containing Folder')

  2. Create a folder called 'plug_ins_disabled' in that directory

  3. From the folder 'plug_ins' remove everything EXCEPT the following to the 'plug_ins_disabled' folder

    • EWH32.api
      printme.api
      Search.api

(If one or more of these files are not there don't worry!)

That's it!
Next time, your Acrobat Reader will open in a jiffy!!!!

Enjoy!
