How can I access the window so I can download to adobe and run the file rather than save it

By mistake I put a check mark in the window box to save my downloads to documents. I want to send them directly to adobe so they can be seen. How do I access this window?

hello, you can change that setting in firefox/tools > options > applications - there you can define the default action for the file-type in question (that will probably be portable document format (pdf) in your case).

View and edit PDF files using Firefox’s built-in viewer

Applications panel - Set how Firefox handles different types of files
