I have approx. 5 instances of Adobe listed there- all disabled. Perhaps updates to IE or Adobe keep re-installing it?

This worked for me.

I assume this is happening in Internet Explorer. Do the following . Alt t - Tools o - Internet Options Control+tab to Programs tab to Manage Add-ons Tab to Filter combo box Move up to all Add-ons and hit enter to select Tab to the list of add-ons The Adobe entry should look like this. Name Adobe PDF Reader Publisher Adobe Inc. Status Disabled Architecture 32-bit and 64-bit If it is not disabled you need to make this change. Open parent document is caused by IE trying to open the document in the browser. By disabling this add-on it should cause Adobe reader to be opened externally so you can read the document. --hth---

Yes, there comes a time when when older technology must be left behind.

It may be the solution, but as far as I am concerned forget about IE, it's slow and clunky and I bet nobody writes Extensions for it, sorry, I should have said add-ons since IE doesn't support extensions. At this point and in my opinion the best browser to use is Edge followed by Google Chrome or other chromium based browsers. .

I am using firefox or chrome and do not get this at all, it gives me the option to save the file or open it in my current default reader. My only problem is that sometimes when I open the document, I don't get anything, but it usually works.

Hi Tim,
When you come across this try pressing, Alt + f,
to open the file menu, press enter on, Save as, select PDF and follow the
prompts to download.
Take care. Mike. Sennt from my iBarstool.

I’m having the same issues. I can’t seem to make it work. I need to read my prior bank statements. They are only available in PDF. I’m sick of that Open Parent Window button. It does nothing. Shirley Shirley Tracy

Tim, you can change it in the Window settings App. You might need to do a search in the Apps search box for “default”, chose Default Files. There are a lot of extensions in the group, but you can tab until you finally get to PDF. The default will be Edge, press inter then find your choice and press inter. Usually you can highlight a file, press the applications key and look for “open With,” but I didn’t see it on the PDF file I chose.
