Opening pdf file goes to printing and closes Pdf Architect window

As PD\F Architect 5 (free) is associated with pdf files I expected that by clicking on a pdf file it would just open the application such as with MS Office type file behavior…

It does, momentarily, but it then closes it while it sends the file to the printer.

Right click on the file (win10) has no option to change this.

Only way to open the file is to run PDF Architect first, definitely not convenient nor normal.

Hi,

this is indeeed very strage but not the default PDF Architect behavior or anything we have heared of so far.
It should open the file just as you expected.
Basically, the commands to open and print certain filetypes are stored in the Windows registry and the behavior you describe indicates somehow the print and open commands seem to be mixed up; no idea what could actually cause this to happen.
Please try to set the default application for opening PDF to anything else and then setting it back to PDF Archtiect.
Sorry for the trouble.

Best regards,

Robin
