Unnecessary to Open PDFs Twice

Hello,

I use Adobe practically every day for my job and the new system/interface is frustrating. Last week I had the ability to go back to the older version, but found that the option was gone this morning. Every time I open a PDF, I get the window I screenshotted and attached; however, I still have to click Open Document to access the file needed. 

This is extremely frustrating and could save time if I could just open the document for viewing right away; I tried changing options in my preferences, but couldn't find anything that was working. I use Adobe for payroll and payment processing along with my colleagues; we're often working under strict deadlines so having to waste time opening a file twice just to view it does not work for us. 

I appreciate any insight or help that can be provided; I'm almost tempted to use a different program at this point just to save time.
