On a webpage I frequent, I have to download documents straight from that website. The default method to open these downloads is set to "NOTE PAD" but I need to open it via "PDF."

How do I change the default to PDF on Firefox? It seems to be just this one single website.

Thank you

That sounds like a file associations problem did you change this setting? Otherwise you will have to look at if you have Windows the file association settings to change it back.

I think I accidentally changed it to open a downtown via Notepad. Just trying to figure out how to change it back to open via PDF.
