How do I open a pdf without having to save the document?

[boarda16934561]

A couple of months ago, I was able to open a pdf on Google Chrome without having to save it. Now for some reason, my settings have changed and it asks me to save the document first before opening it.

I am forever saving pdfs to my desktop to view a pdf then deleting the pdf afterwards.

How do i just open the pdf without saving it.

Please note, I have tried doing the same thing on Internet Explorer and it does not ask me to save, it automatically opens. So, how can i do this on chrome?

Also, I have tried going into the settings and turning off Download PDF files instead of automatically opening them in Chrome and it does not work still.

Please help.

Hi All, 

I also had the same issue, its all about setting in chrome, I am using Windows 10. 

go to 3 dots at upper right corner of your screen under Chrome,

click  Privacy& Security

click Site Setting

click Additional Content setting

click pdf Document

select the Default behaviour as DOWNLOAD PDF

this will sort out your problem 🙂 hope this will help
