I have downloaded "unassoc.zip". When I unzip it, and got the "Unassociate File Types" window in Prof. Srinivasan's applet, I selected PDF and then clicked "Delete file type". This produced the following message from windows: "The system-wide association for this file type will be completely removed from the system, and the changes cannot be undone. Do you want to continue?" Yes No

 

Here is where I need your help: is it SAFE to click "Yes?" I await your advice BEFORE I click "Yes". I understand that if it is safe to do so, I will need to go to a second step and in Adobe Reader click "Repair Adobe Reader Installation".
