The method is slightly different for older operating systems but the issue
is the same.
You need to reallocate PDF to Acrobat. You can do this from Windows Explorer
tools folder options file types.

I read a document and clicked on an attachment. It was an Acrobat
attachment, but it opened the document in Word - so it made no
sense, it looked like lots of random characters. My PC has
acrobat... Now every time I try to open someting in Acrobat or even
a web link, it opens in Word!!! How can I change this?

Any help much appriciated, this is driving me mad!
