P-51 Fight manual won't load

I can open the DCS User Manual just fine with Adobe, but the P-51 Flight manual won't. I get a message that Adobe is not responding. Any ideas.

Thanks,

MJ

The version on ED's website is out of date (no surprise there).

 

The forum will not let me upload the file so your best bet is to delete the file and run a repair. Make sure to remove any mods before doing so.

Start Menu>All Programs>Eagle Dynamics>DCS World>Repair DCS World

 

That is for a non-Steam install. Steam has it's own repair function that, IIRC, can be accessed by right clicking the game in your library and choosing Properties. It is somewhere in there.

Sorry to be a bother but that didn't work. I deleted the P-51 manual from MODS/aircraft/P-51/Docs and ran a repair. Message said repair was completed successfully. Tried to open and got the same outcome. Adobe just runs with no result. I have to stop with task manager which says Adobe is not responding.:helpsmilie:

No bother. Odd that a new download didn't work.

 

I would remove Adobe Reader and install the latest version. It's doesn't take long and it is worth a shot.

That was a suspicion I had and will try that now.

Cichlidfan- Did you used to be on the Falcon forums? The name looks familiar.

Thanks again

That did the trick. Reinstalled Adobe (I went with Reader 9) and all is good. I have a bit of reading to do. (RTFM):thumbup:

Good deal.

 

Nope, wasn't me on the Falcon forum. Must have been some other cichlidophile. ;)

Thanks for the help. I'm sure I will have many questions in the coming winter months.

I set this to default as my .pdf reader. Some sites still require Adobe, so I have it as backup. I use the Firefox browser most of the time.
