Nancy,
I have never gotten the Adobe reader setting to work with it automatically
opening up outside of a browser. When the file opens in either Firefox
quantum or the latest chrome browser, go to the download button and press
enter. You then will have a choice to open or save the file. I hope this
is helpful.
