Hello I found a registry entry in HKCU that fixes this apparently. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf] "Application"="AcroRd32.exe" The "Application" entry is not present right now, and without it WinZip's interpretation of what to do with PDF's is to "open" in Standard. With this entry, WinZip now interprets the default association to "Read" which is linked in HKC to open in Reader. I will just through that in the login script and call it a day. Thanks
