Good morning.  I am attending a class that uses a google drive to host their documentation.  The slides are in PDF format and I can’t read past the first few pages.  I need to find a way to open the documentation from drive in Acrobat so I can read and perhaps follow along and actually study the material?  I tried copying the link to the clipboard than pasting the link in the run dialog hoping to open in Acrobat reader, but it still opens in google drive/Google Chrome.  There is no open in another app option, open with option, etc.  It is set to view only.  Is there a way to download files from the drive?  Any help is appreciated, it took me half an hour last night to determine you open links in Google drive with alt+enter not Enter, because that would make to much sense😊

I am using JAWS 2026 on Windows11 if that matters.

Sean
