Microsoft Edge is hi-jacking Default App for PDF

Hi,

Microsoft Edge's .pdf program (I am guessing as a result of a recent Microsoft update) continually takes over as the default .pdf program.

I am able to reset it to Nitro pdf but within 10 minutes it resets using ME pdf as the default.

Does anyone know how to stop this from happening? I would remove Microsoft Edge from my machine but I don't think that is an option.

Hello,

I’m a Windows user and this worked when the same happened to me:

1. In File Explorer, locate a .PDF file. Right click and select: Open With.

2. Nitro Pro should be one of the options. Select that. Then, select, “Always open with this Application.”

3.  That should do it.
