PDFCreator 3.1.1 ShowQuickActions Registry Settings

[Jock_Allen]

Setting the ShowQuickActions HKEY_USERS.DEFAULT\Software\pdfforge\PDFCreator\Settings\ConversionProfiles through Group Policy. I verify that the policy applies and can see the value set in the registry to false as I specify. However on first use of PDFCreator it ignores my setting and sets it to true under HKEY_CurrentUSer.

Is this a known issue in 3.1.1 of the software? It applies my other settings as I specify like filenametemplate and targetdirectory.

Change target directory with c#

Hi, while you can change the setting directly in the registry, this isn't recommended and might have some timing issues. The best way to change the target directory from C# is using the COM-interface: http://docs.pdfforge.org/pdfcreator/3.2/en/pdfcreator/com-interface/ It is also possible to set it through a command line: http://docs.pdfforge.org/pdfcreator/3.2/en/pdfcreator/using-pdfcreator/command-line-parameters/ Best regards Robin

Hi,

if the other settings are applied it does sound like a bug, we will have a look at it and let you know what we discover.

Best regards

Thanks Robin the other settings apply fine when setting them in .DEFAULTS of HKEYUSERS. This is the only one that seems to be ignored. For now we will advise our users to use the tickybox to not show prompt again on our procedures.
