I tried to remove the plugin but doesnt work it automatically open it in Adobe Reader!!! I want Internet Explorer to ask me to download PDF files!

McSmiggins Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 It's hidden in Acrobat, open it up, then Edit -> Preferences, Select Internet and there's a checkbox for "Display PDF in Browser", should do the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klop Posted July 4, 2005 Author Share Posted July 4, 2005 (edited) Doesnt work... Downloads the file automatically, open Adobe Reader and sometimes closed immediately. It should be : Folder options -> File Types -> PDF Check option: Always ask before opening this type of file. I tried with Doc and some other files and it works! But it it doesnt change anything with PDF!! :angry: Edited July 4, 2005 by klop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klop Posted July 4, 2005 Author Share Posted July 4, 2005 Adobe Reader is stupid... It overrides Windows options and doesnt care about what you configure. "Always ask before opening this type of file" works for every files except PDF... I re-enabled "Display PDF in Browser" and then disabled the plugin in Explorer but PDF files still opens in IE.
