Question

The link does not open a PDF file in Edge; however, it works fine in Chrome and Opera.

This is how Opera and Google Chrome show my URL after I click a button in the PDF, which opens a PDF file.
//example.azurewebsites.net/CANGC/Process/off-site-facility-management/6_1-Chemistry/Step-Descriptions/6-1-1/6-1-1-1.pdf

 

This is how Edge shows the URL after the click, which cannot locate the file.

//example.azurewebsites.net/CANGC/Process/off-site-facility-management/6_1-Chemistry/Flow-Chart/6.1%20Ultrasonic%20Chemistry%20Management/2.%20Process%20Design/2b.%20Step%20Descriptions/1%20-%20Chemical%20Inventory/6-1-1-1.pdf

 

Edge rewrote the URL longer, forcing the path wrong.

What's funny is that I put the same URL into the Edge Browser, which opens that PDF file. The extensions do not solve my problem. Is there another solution out there, Adoe Reader Community?

That link is broken in all browsers. The following error message appears:

 

The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Hi @try67.   The link is only broken in the Edge Browser, but it works in Chrome, Firefox and Opera browsers. I have tried Adobe Acrobat and Open In PDF Reader extensions, but they do not work in Edge.

First of all, the links you posted are invalid. They're missing the "http(s):" part. I tried it both ways in both Chrome and Firefox and got the above error message in all instances.
