Workaround to Adobe Reader not opening pdf files in long paths.
- Create a folder to store the Open-PdfViaJunction.ps1 script file, ie: C:\Scripts
- Copy the Open-PdfViaJunction.ps1 to C:\Scripts
- Open cmd prompt (As Administrator)
- Open 'Shell - Open via Junction (Adobe Safe).txt' file and copy paste the two reg add commands into cmd prompt and execute.
- Right click on a pdf file and the option 'Open via Junction (Adobe Safe)' should appear.
- Browse to a long path where there is a pdf file that won't open using normal method.
- Try right click and 'Open via Junction (Adobe Safe)' instead it should now open successfully.
