Change Default PDF Reader in Windows 10

If you are trying to open a PDF from an Internet Page and it is opening in Chrome instead of Acrobat Reader, it is because Chrome is your computer's default PDF Reading program.


The steps below will help you change your computer's default PDF Reader program to Adobe Reader. 

1. On the Start menu, select Settings. 


2. Type Default into the Search box and choose Default app settings.


3. Select "Choose default apps by file type". 


4. Scroll down to .pdf and select the application listed. 



5. Select "Adobe Acrobat", "Adobe Reader", or "Adobe Acrobat 2020" (whichever applies) from the list of applications.
