The way to fix this is to run RegEdit and manually fix the extension link for PDF. 

Open this key: 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\OpenWithList 

Set the first item in the list (ie a) to AcroRd32.exe 

Close RegEdit and any versions of Acrobat or AcroReader that are running. 

Now when you double-click a PDF file it should open into Reader.
