Adobe Reader = Really Friggin Slow

November 6th, 2008

Is your Adobe Acrobat Reader too slow??? Mine was. Until I figured out that the reason it was slow was because it had to load a zillion stupid and mostly worthless plugins. I found out that you can solve this problem by moving all the unnecessary plugins from the “plug_ins” directory to the “Optional” directory in the “Reader” path (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader).

Here is what I left in my plug_ins directory:

[Update] I attempted to open a password protected PDF, and my Adobe reader went to lunch. So… after a few failed attempts at restoring whatever plugin is required to open password protected files, I downloaded foxit reader and removed Adobe’s. Life is so much better now.
