PDF creator
Posted on 2012-12-27
Every time a user or administrator login to Windows server 2003 while launching the PDFCreator getting window like "Please wait while windows configures PDFCreator 0.9.8". ONLY for administrators this configuration will complete and PDF creator will launch. However, for users this congiguration will fail.
Question:
Why PDF creator is trying to configure every time a user or admin try to open or use print to PDF opetion on server. Also, we notices on the server eventvwr it says "Unable to find HKEY_Current_user/Software
Troubleshooting:
Tried reinstalling PDF creator
Gave full access to the PDFCreator.exe

This is a citrix sever and we have users connect to the server through ICA channel. Application installed by a administrator manually on the server. We have restarted the server before and after install. Application reinstall also same issue.
Have you seen this?

Does this apply to your configuration?

Ok then I would think that that product will not work on a citrix server.
What happens if you logon to the server directly with your account ?
Have you tried this product on a local machine first?

First: This happens only on some citrix servers. Other citrix servers works fine.
If I login with my admin account to the server and try to print to PDF it says "Please wait while windows configures PDFCreator 0.9.8".

Does control panel installed programs list this product as installed?
