Don't open the files in your browser. Save them locally and then open them directly using Adobe Reader.

nothing can be saved without opening first. No right clicking or any other method. Must be opened 1st.

It's actually the other way around. For a file to be opened it must first be saved, even as a temporary file.

You should change the settings of your browser so that it will prompt you to save the file instead of opening it automatically.

In Firefox you can do it via Tools - Options - Applications. Search for "pdf" and set the action associated with it to "Save File" or "Always Ask".

Then you'll be able to open it in Reader.

Maybe some of the fixes here will help.

You can forget about Chrome and Edge. They use their own pdf viewers that don't work with forms.
