[FIX] Adobe Reader v.5 fails to open PDF with "There was an error opening this document. A temporary file could not be opened."

If you see “There was an error opening this document.  A temporary file could not be opened.” when trying to open a PDF file, you may need to clean out C:Documents and SettingsUSERNAMELocal SettingsTempAcr*.tmp

Cheers to “gprellwitz” who suggests this here:

Jeers to the MSFT developer who decided that “Documents and Settings” with spaces and mixed caps was a better home directory prefix than “home”
