CutePDF with Ask Toolbar :(

Post by rbeede »

So I installed CutePDF on a home computer today by downloading the latest version from their website.

During the install I noticed it prompted to install a toolbar. I unselected the options telling it not to.

It still installed the toolbar! Very annoying for me and the laptop user who hates it.

:(

Maybe I'll take an open source alternative and modify it to use the standard Windows OS save dialog and without the annoying toolbar install.

I've installed CutePDF at least 20 times (as recently as last week), and that has never happened to me. I uncheck the boxes, and it doesn't install the toolbar.

I had the same problem yesterday and like aebrown I did uncheck the tool bar option, but it still installed the tool bar.

I'm using Chrome, if that has any bearing!

The toolbar can easily be uninstalled using the regular method for any installed program. While it *IS* rather annoying to have to take extra steps to remove it, I'm not sure it's that big of an issue.

I ran into this just this morning working on my new clerk computer image. It was easily un-installed, but I know that I unchecked the options to use it during the wizard setup.

I can't speak to how our channel partners choose to bundle and position the install options for our toolbar, but I can definitely speak to its removal. We publish all the removal steps at this link:
