When you double click PDFE grid, you are only shelling out the pdf document with the "open" verb so if its not doing what is suppose to do is because something is not properly configured in the Windows shell.
The strange is that from the shell itself you are getting good behaviour. Very strange ended

If you want to know more about that subject, so you can check your windows registry an tell me more about, take a look at this information
