When you click on a link and Firefox doesn't have a content type and download action set up for that type of file, Firefox will ask you how to handle the file:. If you are having problems with how Firefox is handling file downloads that you can't resolve, or if you just want to start fresh, you can restore the default content types and actions by manually deleting the file that stores these settings.

My Product Information: Acrobat Pro 8. Registered: Feb 10 Posts: Hi -- The problem is more likely related to your operating system settings or browser settings than your Acrobat settings.
Can you right-click the PDF file's link to open a shortcut menu? You should find an Open or Open with option you can use to directly open the file. Registered: Jun 28 When I click on a pdf file within IE I get a dialog box that states file is downloading and then a second dialog box pops open asking if I want to save the file. The default behavior has not changed; if you have not changed download settings, file downloads will happen automatically just as before.
If you have enabled "Ask where to save each file before downloading" however, you will get the new download prompt instead of a file browser.
The prompt, displayed at the bottom of the screen, lists "open" and "save as" options directly. A click on the three dots next to the visible choices displays "save" and "cancel" options. Save as opens the file browser so that you can pick a local folder for the download. Save on the other hand places it in the default download folder as set in the Edge settings under Downloads.
Cancel stops the entire operation and deletes the temporary bits that were already downloaded. Open is a new option; Edge loads the file from a temporary folder in the default system app for the file extension.
If there is none, a choice is displayed to the user. Microsoft has configured the browser to delete the temporary folder when a new browsing session is started. Another new feature in Edge 87 is the ability to delete downloads directly from within the browser UI.
Once downloaded, select the three dots next to the download and there the delete file option. Other options include opening the file, setting the file type to always open automatically, to open the folder it has been saved into, to copy the download link, or to report the download to Microsoft because you believe it is unsafe.
Edge, like most Chromium-based browsers, starts the download immediately even if the user has not responded to the prompt. I found that the hard way when I installed Edge some months ago, since it was irreversible, I was forced to migrate to a new Local Windows account and I uninstalled Edge right after.
When my Windows 10 gets the new Edge automatically through an update, I will not use it, when I reinstall Windows 10 in the future that comes with the new Edge, I will just use it to download whatever other browser that I use. Imagine if Microsoft had actually released a browser that respected privacy and only integrated as much as the user wanted — choices at least.
It does seem like a nice browser but yea, not with a ten foot pole as it is. I just think Microsoft did a total surrender in adopting Chromium as a web browser engine. He at least was proud of Microsoft being a software company that knew how to build quality software.
Today all Microsoft seems interested in is cloud, cloud and more cloud services. Windows is almost a legacy operating system and Microsoft spends more time marketing Azure these days.
Abandoning its own browser engine just added another white flag that Microsoft has given up. The web is governed by network effects. With chromium you tap into them. Today Browsers are simply a consumer facing frontend, since the technology for the backend is already there, free. They likewise dropped a lot of other sucky software when Steve Ballmer was still around.
Sometimes companies have winners, sometimes they have losers.
