Teresa If you have a nostalgic outlook and don't like the way Windows 10 operates, try the free CLASSIC SHELL which has many customisations and with Windows 10 still "under the hood" you can have the look and feel of Windows 7!!

I would suspect the problem is that TMG tries to "install/configure" its own PDF generator, and that operation needs admin privileges. Still nothing to do with Adobe Acrobat itself. On Windows 10 -- it is much simpler to just use the Microsoft provided PDF printer as a selected printer in preferences, rather than the TMG "Save To: PDF" which uses a temporary printer redirection (to the Wholly Genes PDF printer) to generate the file. {Heck, this thread has me thinking I should remove PDF from the list of "save to" file types just to avoid the confusion} -- bieber.genealogy@earthlink.net Dennis Lee Bieber HTTP://home.earthlink.net/~bieber.genealogy/

Glad you got it fixed. I always print to word, do some editing and then print to PDF. -----Original Message----- From: TMG [mailto:tmg-bounces+cheryl=genattic.com@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Teresa Elliott Sent: Thursday, June 1, 2017 7:31 PM To: The Master Genealogist Rootsweb Email List <tmg@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [TMG] Printer Help Cheryl, it is Adobe that is the issue.

DIdn’t think about saving an old version of Adobe Reader. ☹ It shouldn't be -- Adobe Reader (with or without the DC; the previous version was Adobe Reader X) is not a "printer" target, only a viewer of PDF files.

The "PDF Printer" would never install for me (I haven't even tried it on Win10 -- bad enough the "Wholly Genes" PDF printer and the Quicken PDF printer are different versions of the same engine -- and TurboTax used to install one for itself too; but I don't see it in my list -- maybe they made PDF an internal format rather than a "print to" format). -- bieber.genealogy@earthlink.net Dennis Lee Bieber HTTP://home.earthlink.net/~bieber.genealogy/

I've just run three tests (family group sheet, ahnentafel, and journal [ancestor]) with no problems.

Dennis, Once I ran as Administrator, it worked for me. I don’t use the PDF option all that often, but it’s nice to know TMG is still fully functioning on my new computer, since I usually get about 5 years out of a computer.
