Colonel Travis Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Is there a way to just open it in Nitro? When I check for default apps, or right click a PDF to choose a default program, or look in the Edge settings there is no Nitro option. I don't want to be using a browser, how do I get the PDF to open only in Nitro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Official Nitronaut Reymund G. Posted January 30 Official Nitronaut Report Share Posted January 30 Greetings @Colonel Travis Thank you for reaching out to us through our Community Forums! When you right-click > Properties a PDF file, the General tab section will display which software it will use to open the document. There is also an option to change the PDF viewer which will apply to all .pdf files. Here's how I change the default PDF software on my machine. See screencast below: Kind regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Wright Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 I have mine set that way and from file explorer it works but if I double click a PDF in Outlook it opens in edge. File explorer works, outlook does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Travis Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 I reinstalled Nitro Pro and was able to make the switch. Originally, for some reason the Nitro option wasn't showing up, it wasn't even in the install folder the first time. Why? I don't know, but it's there now after downloading and re-installing.

Official Nitronaut Reymund G. Posted February 15 Official Nitronaut Report Share Posted February 15 Greetings @Colonel Travis Thank you for reaching out to us through our Community Forums! I have tried changing the default application for PDF on my machine and Outlook respect this setup. It uses the software that I assigned as the default application when clicking a PDF file attachment in emails. In searching online for this issue, it seems that Edge is persistent in opening PDF attachments in Outlook. I found similar concern when searching online using the keyword 'pdf opening in edge from outlook'. The link below from Microsoft may help you fix the issue with Outlook: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/all/when-i-open-pdf-files-in-outlook-they-open-into/cf8cd53c-2365-488e-b078-8eba87607ff1 Kind regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
