When I would dowload a file I would be asked where I wanted to save the PDF file to, now the file just opens automatically in Adobe without asking where to save. Not convenient for what I do.

Please advise if anyone has any ideas! Much appreciated!

You can turn off this feature via preferences. Kindly un-check below preference from the preferences dialog(ctrl+k / cmd+k) in Reader.

Preferences -> General -> Open PDFs automatically in Reader when they are downloaded in Chrome browser

I think Adobe on the web is capable of stealing the work you do

It is not about opening the PDFs, it is about asking to Save them before opening.

The PDFs are already being opened automatically when downloading, I just want the option to save to certain folders first which I was doing in the past and then all of a sudden Adobe is not doing this anymore.

Thank you in advance.
