PDF Viewer fix

We have all seen this. I wonder if there is a fix, or is it simply updating Adobe?

Please wait...

I understand you can download it. But regardless of why, I want to open it in a browser. I have hundreds of PDFs on my PC. A small handful will not open in browser, but most will. There has to be a reason and that reason is what I want to know.
