    How to override Microsoft Edge as the default PDF viewer? I wish I could uninstall it, but Microsoft apparently has it protected.

    That has nothing to do with Edge or Acrobat, but the website in question.

    A website can tell a browser that the file the user clicked absolutely must be downloaded. In that case, Edge will download the file and offer "open" and "save" options. This allows you to download the file automatically then open the file your default PDF
    viewer if your default viewer is not Edge.

    If a website doesn't tell the browser that the file must be absolutely downloaded, then Edge (and Chrome and Firefox) will just open PDFs as a webpage.

  3. Can I stop MS "Get Edge" when I open Internet Explorer11 - Win10

    I have the opposite problem. I took edge off as my default but now I can't access certain sites I need so I went to put edge back as my default but it is not there. I went to Microsoft to download edge but maybe I'm no tech but it puts you on a site for
    insider and I don't see a way to download edge. I followed the instructions but once I got to the insider page and they recommend you don't download that on your computer which had edge, where do I go from there? no options to download edge. help

    The easiest way I've found is to go to your Downloads folder, right click and choose the 'Location' tab. Change the location path to anywhere you want. Done!!
