Open pdf files from Edge in Acrobat

For work I log into our company website. When I try to open a pdf file from there it used to open in Acrobat until I decided to try out the Acrobat extension and then lost the ability to automatically open the file in Acrobat.

 

Now it takes an extra step to click on "open file" after downloading. I have tried all the different settings in Edge when it comes to site permissions and download pdfs. I also deactivated the Acrobat Add-on in the Acrobat internet settings.

 

It might not sound like much to do a few extra clicks but if you have to do the same task a hundred times a day it adds up.

 

How can I open pdfs from Edge in Acrobat again with less clicks?

Thanks!

Thanks Amal, doesn't apply to my situation as I removed the extension and lost the feature that I had before I even installed the extension.

 

Have a great weekend!
