Download Acrobat Reader
Proceed to the Adobe Reader website (see Resources below). Click the “Download Adobe Reader” link. Select the destination directory for your download. By default, Windows Vista will download files to a Temp directory, so you may want to set it to download to the desktop so it is easier to find. Click “OK” to allow the download to begin.
Install Acrobat Reader on Windows Vista
Double-click the executable that you downloaded to begin the install process. Click “Next” on the install file’s introductory screen to proceed to the End-User License Agreement. Click on the “Accept User Agreement” button, followed by “Next.” This indicates that you have read the User Agreement and are ready to install Adobe Reader. Choose the directory in which you wish to install Adobe Reader. By default Adobe Reader will install to the “C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader” directory, but you can change that by clicking “Browse” and choosing a different directory path. Click “Next” once you’ve chosen the installation path you wish to use. This will begin the installation process. Click “Finish” once you have completed installing Adobe Reader. This will close the installation program and return you to the desktop. Upgrade your version of Adobe Reader by starting it (click Start, All Programs, “Adobe,” and then “Reader”) and waiting for the Reader to auto-detect its version number. It will then contact the Adobe web site to verify it is the latest version. If it isn’t then it will prompt you to upgrade to the latest available version. The update installs automatically without additional input. Tips Warnings Writer Bio
