When using windows ten on my hp notebook, which is new, it won’t open a pdf
file with Firefox. I pick Firefox, it opens with ie or doesn’t open.
This only started the last few days.
Thanks for any help.


Make sure the file associations in Windows and in Firefox are set to
your PDF reader.


I have been using Firefox on Windows 10 since it came out and Firefox
since the Netscape days. While in recent version Firefox handle PDF
files and Adobe Reader differently I can still click on a PDF link and
have the PDF file open.



. I downloaded Adobe flash but still can’t open a pdf file with Firefox. Is
Adobe reader a different program?

Yes. They are completely different. One the reader is for documents,
in the same fashion that Wordperfect is for documents.

Flash is a format for putting content on the web.
