Update broke ability to choose where to open PDFs.
Adobe auto updated. The ability to choose where a PDF is opened or downloaded is now missing. Completely makes FireFox unsuitable for what I do.
I did redo all the settings to 'ask before'. Refreshed FireFox. Tried changing it in the popup where I choose what to print.
What do I need to fix?

Do you have any steps to reproduce this issue?
I have nothing that I can post. Before it produced a pop up that asked where to save file. I had three choices, open in Firefox, open in adobe, or save file. Now it only opens in a new browser.
I guess it's about embedded PDFs. You can go to about:config and switch pdfjs.disabled to true. It should produce a fallback page with an option to open in Adobe Reader.
It made a change. What I do is probably a little odd as the website I use generates a pop up that gives me the choices of what I want to display. Once I choose an option it now opens a new tab that says "The PDF cannot be displayed here" with a button that offers to open pdf. Then I get a new pop up with 2 choices.
Rather not have two steps. I like the old way. Any other changes I can do?
Try turning off Always ask, just select directly Adobe Reader in the Settings.

Each time I need it to do something else. I use all three options on a regular basis!
I am sending a bug report. Thank you much.

Thank you. This is quite the mess. If it wasn't for security I would roll back from this update.
