Question

hi,

i use the hound out of acrobat professional 7/8. i got rid of my filing cabinets years ago and have scanners and acrobat and last year added cloud storage.

i have chased my tail all evening trying to resolve this. i always put in keywords in the properties of the file itself to help in the search, file names are uber important but you need more info sometimes and that is where the leywords make life better.

today i am no longer able to right click the completed file and choose properties from the right click menu and then choose the pdf tab and enter my keywords. the only thing differnet i disabled java in my web browsers and updated acrobat reader when i saw it was ootdated.

i can enter it from the open program. when you are scanning you work very seldom in the program because all you are care about is the container so the change is unwelcome.

anyone use acrobat in scanning? Can you tell me what might have happened?

this is a bummer, Thanks

Well I do not have an answer but i did find a solution. I installed pdf-xchange viewer as well and it opened the property sheet up again and i can add or see key words used in the past so i am satisfied. you know just like xp did windows 7 gets mucked up and funky after a while. must be time to refresh.

    • Yes for me, I installed 'old calculator' (Windows 7 calculator) in its place since it is more useful to me. I think paint is the only one I left installed
    • eh I'll wait for the June 2026 MVS ISO downloads which should be coming out next Tuesday June 16 and possibly contain build 8655 instead of 8653

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
