On a PC, Edge is the default
If you prefer another browser like Chrome, or another program to open PDF's like Adobe Reader, then you can change the default programs that open when you double click on a file or open a web link.
- Press the Windows key on your keyboard or the Start Menu on your screen.
- From this window you can change the default programs depending on the function.
Just click on the application to change it to a different default.
-
Continue to the bottom of this settings page if you'd like to change default apps by file type, like PDF files.
-
Scroll down to the file type .PDF. It's way down there.
-
Click and change the default app to Adobe Acrobat Reader, if you prefer.
-
You're all set!
If you click on an email in a browser and your email doesn't populate in Outlook, change the default Email program to Outlook.
