Open PDFs with Adobe by default after Adobe Reader install

Windows 8 introduced the pesky Microsoft Reader app which in my experience is junk. Unfortunately, its set as the default program to open PDF files, even after Adobe Reader is installed. Of course you can manually set the default app, or uninstall the Reader app (for the user at least, cant figure out how to permanently remove it for everyone, *another suggestion) but at an enterprise level that's not quite possible. 

I suggest a registry edit, or any another method, to automatically set Adobe Reader to open PDFs after the package is deployed.
