DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Unable to open ANY pdfs after installing DL 7.4M2 on 8.1

I have a Surface Pro running 8.1. Recently purchased a Targus 3.0 ACP70US dock.
As soon as I install DisplayLink 7.4 M2, I lose all ability to open PDF files. The METRO READER app fails with a Remote Procedure Call failure, and Adobe Reader Touch Fails with an App failed to open error.
If I uninstall the DL 7.4M2, these apps both start working again. I have a clear cause and effect here.
Anyone else seen this behavior or similar and know were to turn? It happens regardless of the user account in use, joined or unjoined to a domain.

Scratching my head!
