When I tap on a .pdf file in the File Explorer, the Adobe Reader 2.0 starts to load, shows the addins loading one by one, then dies not even showing the file.
I found a workaround: 1. Launch the Adobe Reader 2.Open any pdf which appears in it's file list. That done, any pdf file can be opened from the File Explorer.

I remember having found a registry patch for it somewhere but lost it and can't find it again. Could somebody help?
Only don't tell me %1 should be double-quoted - it is.
Btw: why the file list the Reader shows contains only the files in the first-level directories but not those from lower levels - is it a normal behavior?
Why all this happened to me?

I have a iPaq hx2490 with Windows Mobile 5.0
