Need a Script or Policy to Automatically Set Installed Adobe (Reader or Acrobat) as Default App for .PDF Files Based on Available ProgID

Hi,

Hi,

We have a mixed environment where both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat are deployed across different user machines. The requirement is to implement a solution (via PowerShell script or policy) that automatically detects the installed Adobe application on a device and sets it as the default handler for .pdf files.

The solution should:

Query the system to detect the installed Adobe application (Reader or Acrobat)

Identify the correct ProgID.

Set the detected Adobe app as the default PDF handler for the current user or all users

This needs to work dynamically without hardcoding specific versions, to support future updates as well.

Please suggest solution or script or XML to automate this.
