Win10 2004 update kills Acro activex functionality (solved)

[bosibila]

Hello everybody,
I'm asking for help with this bug. Does anyone has experienced shutting down of some Acrobat activex functions (oActivex:Do("PrintWithDialog") and oActivex:Do("Print"))? After Win10 2004 update those two functions are disabled. Maybe is fault in my old FWH version (11.08) so I would beg for help someone who has last version to compile this sample. To start sample: copy some PDF file to "test.pdf" and compile pdf.prg. After start PDF.EXE aplication must open window with test.pdf and then open Acrobat dialog. Please to write me your results, thanks ...

Boris

Code: Select all

// FiveWin ActiveX support demo - Using Adobe Acrobat Reader

#include "FiveWin.ch"

function Main()

   local oWnd, oActiveX

   DEFINE WINDOW oWnd TITLE "FiveWin ActiveX Support"

   oActiveX = TActiveX():New( oWnd, "AcroPDF.PDF.1" ) // Use "AcroPDF.PDF.1" for Acrobat Reader 7 

   oWnd:oClient = oActiveX    // To fill the entire window surface

   oActiveX:Do( "LoadFile", "test.pdf" )
   oActiveX:Do( "SetCurrentPage", 1 )
   oActivex:Do("PrintWithDialog") 

   ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd

return nil

Seems working ok ( Windows 10 - 2004 )

It doesn't print here (Windows 10 Pro 2004). The print button also doesn't work.

Thanks guys, unfortunately I'm at the beginning again. I thought upgrading to the new version would solve the problem.

Yesterday I found solution:
Acrobat Reader -> Edit -> Preferences -> Security (Enhanced) -> Enable Protected Mode at startup (uncheck).
