Trouble Opening Secured PDF Files From X: Drive
- CS (Unlicensed)
Problem
I can’t open a PDF file that was sent from the X: Drive
Solution
NOTE: Files in the X:\ Drive are for Project Managers, and Senior Management. If you have access to the X:\ Drive and believe that is in error, please contact the IT Help Desk department. Otherwise, follow these steps to open your pdf.
In a File Explorer window, right click your document and select Open With
From the drop-down menu, select Azure Information Protection Viewer
If Azure Information Protection Viewer does not appear on the list, contact HelpDesk@hlw.com to install the program.
If the file was sent through e-mail, you will need to save the file to your local computer before opening it. If you are opening a file directly within the X:\ Drive, skip to Step 3.
Click the drop-down arrow next to the attachment and select “Save As”
Save the file to any local folder on your computer, such as Documents, then click Save
