Hello, I managed to install Adobe reader extension on chrome and edge, then tried to open multiple PDF files, but they won't open but loading. I unistalled and reinstalled the extension and closed the browser and reopened it and still the same. I keep getting endless loading like this: 

Any help would be appreciated.

They are probably LiveCycle Designer forms, a special kind of PDF files which are not really PDFs...

You should download them and then open directly in Reader, instead of in the browser window.

Ensure proper installation, uninstall, and reinstall the extension, and then restart your browser. Check for browser compatibility and adjust extension permissions.
