Learning has never been so easy!
Aug 02, 2017 default pdf viewer via gpo - windows server 2008 r2 / windows 10 edu end points. I am looking to remedy this by deploying a gpo to change the default application to Adobe Acrobat Reader 11, but everything I see is Windows server 2012 or later. How can this be done on Windows Server 2008 R2 with windows 10 endpoints?
