Issue with displaying PDF files in the bootable USB version of OSForensics

[Bigy24]

Hello, I sometimes use the bootable USB Flash Drive from OSForensics. Everything works well and i like it, except that PDF files are not readable in the file viewer. Has this been fixed? Thanks

This is a known limitation currently with WinPE as WinPE does not support DirectX.

OSForensics uses the native support from Windows (10 and above) for loading the PDF. The native Windows API uses DirectX as the renderer, which unfortunately, WinPE does not support.

Thanks,
I used Sumatra PDF portable version in WinPe and it works
