I installed Adobe Reader 6.0.1 twice, by mistake. I had Adobe Reader, it

worked OK, i just thought that I got the new version, and installed it

twice. Now, when open PDF or run Acrobat, I see notification error message

"There was an error while loading the plug-in 'PaperMetaData.api. The

plug-in is failed to initialize.". After confirming, PDF opens normally. I

tried repair installation use 'Repair' option provided by Adobe Reader 6.0.1

installer, but this not help.

 

Regards,

Santander

You should note that if you intend using Adobe Reader in 98, the last

version is apparently 6.0.6, and the updates address potential issues/flaws

in prior releases [including plug-ins/Java/scripting etc.]. Also note these

installs WILL increase the disk usage and memory requirements for the

application. Memory requirements can be somewhat relieved by limiting the

plug-ins loaded at reader startup.

I have Adobe Reader 6.0.2 vers, the updates are 6.0.2 - 6.0.6.

I noticed that program loads very slow when run from Programs shortcut, and

more fast when open PDF document.

Which updates are superfluous and can be removed without further showing

popup prompt to install updates?

It isn't the updates you need to uninstall, it is the plug-ins loaded [and

those aren't uninstalled, but are moved to limit inclusion in Reader

startup].

Answers on which can be disabled and how to accomplish this can be found in

various places [and even some on Adobe] but it would not be my place to

advise concerning your personal needs or use. Your individual needs or

intended use, are likely contrary to mine.

 

You can stop the *Reader* update issues by disabling the check in the

Reader.

Requests to download other updates [really plug-ins] should be left at

individual needs [they can also be disabled], though ALWAYS check WHERE the

plug-in comes from [preferably from a trusted site], AND for Spyware, virus

or other, BEFORE installing AND after. That includes a search on the Net for

any related discussions or warning for whatever you intend to install, or

disable.

 

You can also limit or deny access from the Reader to the Internet via your

firewall, which IS what I recommend, particularly as the 6.0 version is

apparently no longer being updated, so the Reader [not the browser helper]

has no present need to contact the Internet.
