I too continue to have the problem. I'm using LyX 2.2.0 on a Windows 7 Enterprise machine with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 15.016.20045. When I try to LaTeX my file with a filename apostrophe (one-line file with filename Maltenfort's), I get a pop-up window "pdfview.exe has stopped working." The problem goes away if the apostrophe isn't in the filename. Here is what I got from "show problem details": Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: pdfview.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 56ff3a9a Fault Module Name: SHELL32.dll Fault Module Version: 6.1.7601.23418 Fault Module Timestamp: 5708a73f Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 002445f0 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.4 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789

That error definitely shows that LyX is confused. I cannot reproduce so hopefully someone else can figure out what's going on. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9368#comment:13> The LyX Project <http://www.lyx.org/> LyX -- The Document Processor
