Setting Adobe Acrobat as default .pdf viewer with GPO's
Running Windows Server 2008 R2. I have an RDS server that I would like users to use adobe acrobat as their default .pdf viewer. Im doing this with GPO by using the folder options GPO under user preferences. However, I am getting the error:
"The user 'test' preference item in the Adobe
{3EE4E80F-17CB-4E56-9237-4
because it failed with error code '0x80070005 Access is denied.' This error
was suppressed."
I tried running this with the logged in user context option check and unchecked with no luck. I recreated the GPO. Ive tried applying this GPO to the RDS server OU and using loopback policy processing, this did not work. I've tried just applying the GPO to the user's OU and it still fails.
Any ideas on what exactly is denying access to the GPO? I checked the permissions to the GPO on the sysvol and authenticated users can access this.

Trying to figure out what exactly this error is referring to, either the GPO doesnt have correct permissions, or the registry key that it is modifying, or the adobe acrobat program that i am trying to set as default.
