When I try to open an epub book, I get a message that Adobe Acrobat can't read my file.  How do I get it to download with digital editions instead?

    The ebook you have downloaded might be .pdf format and it tries to open with Acrobat.

    1. Launch ADE
      • Drag and drop the ebook in ADE application.
      • or Select the menu item File-->Add to Library
    2. Or physically copy the files inside "My Digital Editions" folder in C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Documents\.
      • Launch ADE
