I have managed to ThinApp Internet Explorer 10, on a Windows 7 64bits machine.
However, on the ThinApped IE10, I encountered some issues:
When we want to open a PDF, a new tab is opened but it is empty, the PDF never shows;
When we want to export an Excel (xls and csv) report by clicking on a button, nothing happens. (IE9 asks if we want to open, save or cancel.)
I tried to ThinApp together IE10 and Acrobat Reader (two entry points in one package); Acrobat Reader is launched when new tab opens (first time 'Accept the conditions' pops up), but file still isn't displayed.
I tried to use AppLink but didn't managed to...
Would you have a process I could follow to trouble shoot this issue?
Thanks a lot!

I am starting a PDF. It is being opened in a Chrome tab.
According to Jimis answer in my other question, the following happens:
The Process object that opened the PDF doesn't exist anymore after the main Chrome Process presents the PDF content in a tabbed Window. Find the Chrome Process and check the current title of its Window.
Now I want to close this PDF again.
I go through all windows to find the name of the PDF.
I find it by using the PDF's name and adding " - Google Chrome".
The following window is found:
"test.pdf - Google Chrome"
However, when I close this window, the entire browser window is closed, not only the one tab.
Does anybody know why and how to avoid that?
Good morning. I have a web page control with selenium. However, when I click the button of the site, a pop-up screen appears and I want to test that the file attachment is saved by pressing the file attachment button in it. Can you control selenium with two windows (parent, child-popup) going up and down?
I guess you want to interact with file upload dialog which is native window via selenium. That is not possible. However you can select file to upload using sendKeys without the dialog being opened.
Something like that
fileInput.sendKeys("/path/to/local/file");
I'm pretty new to visual basic, but have been looking far and wide and have had no luck finding an answer to this anywhere. I've used WebBrowser to navigate to a webpage. On this page there's a link to click which will then download a csv file.
I've got my program to click this link using:
WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("elementID").InvokeMember("click")
But I'm not sure how to handle the 'file download' dialog box that pops up. One way, I'm thinking, is to use sendkeys to click the 'save' button, but this seems a bit clunky.
I'm wondering if I can use FileDownload somehow to handle this box before it pops up. (Microsoft's documentation says: "If a file download dialog box can be displayed, this event fires prior to the appearance of the dialog box.")
Any know if this is possible or do you have any other smart ideas for solving this problem?
Does anyone know how to call Adobe Reader from the command line to open a pre-populated Adobe Form (with Extensions enabled) e.g MRBIGSORDER0001.PDF, allow the user to alter it and then do a save and exit?
At present when the populated form is opened for updating, hitting Save or the Save button on the toolbar prompts the user with "Save As", which is causing them to create multiple versions.
This issues appears to be related to new Security / Sandbox settings from Adobe Reader X onwards.

It is not clear exactly how to stop this from happening on a fine "level" but going to:
Edit --> Preferences --> Security (Enhanced)
Turning off "[ ] Enable Protected Mode at Startup" certianly stops this odd behavior cold.
I am looking into "Priveledged Locations" settings to see if I can fine tune this.

Make sure you are not using the Preview pane in the windows View. If you just use the Navigation pane and not preview or details pane then you should be able to just save.
It's like windows is holding the file open and so it is an active file and you can't just do a save you have to do a save as.
I think it must be a bug with the windows update
If you want end-users to be able to save a document that has been filled out, you need to Reader-enable the form.
Reader-enabling can only be done with Adobe software as the concept consists of digitally signing the document using a private key owned by Adobe. This digital signature unlocks functionality in Adobe Reader that is otherwise only available in Adobe Acrobat.
So, the solution is:
Make sure that the original form is reader-enabled (use Adobe Acrobat to do this),
Do not break the reader-enabling when pre-filling the form,
Thanks to the two previous steps, the "Save" button will work in your current set-up.
I linked a pdf as object in powerpoint. For that I wend to insert-> Object and there I select Create from file I select the pdf file and I check Link checkbox.
As soon as I press OK button I get the error I put as title. I try to found what was the error and I found some solutions:
Open the run window and do the following:
1. regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\ole32.dll
2. In the RegSvr32 dialog box, click OK.
3. Restart the computer.
I also saw in some forums that reinstalling the pdf reader that they have the problem used to be solved. But no one of those solutions works for me I still have the same error.
EDIT
I test with different type of files and it gives me the same error when I try to make the same process.
Check to see if the pdf file is open in Adobe Reader. If it is open, close it. Retry the PowerPoint Insert Object operation.
You need to disable protected mode in Adobe Reader.
In reader XI:
Edit > Preferences > Security (Enhanced) > Enable Protected Mode at startup
and remove the checkmark. Close or restart Adobe Reader (make sure there are no processes still running) and try again.
