Re: Vista - default printer doesn't stay as default

I am having the "Can't set a default printer problem" as well. It comes into play with me, not on a network, but all the time. The major issue, as I saw posted somewhere else here, is with programs like Adobe Reader (Acrobat) that only print to a default printer. In other words I can't print PDFs. That is a real PITA as I
am a REALTOR and PDFs are my WORLD. I did see an answer by "Alan" that mentioned some "HKEY-BLAH BLAH BLAH," But there was no info about what to do with it. I am not a registry savvy guy. Its a new machine and the manufacturer was no help either! This has been going on for several months. Should I just go buy an Apple?
