I have installed adobe acrobat reader DC, linked my dropbox account to it, and change the default program to open pdf files to adobe, but when I try to open a pdf from Dropbox online, it still opens in my edge browser (windows 10.)
i have a question about pdf and adobe and dropbox. when i download a pdf from dropbox it opens automatically as a chrome html document so functions like fill and sign are not there. i've tried the solutions for pdf viewing in chrome to no avail so someone suggested it might be a setting in dropbox. if you're familiar with this problem is there a chance you can assist me?

Thanks for the quick response, Laura; I'm glad to hear it's sorted now.
Enjoy the rest of your day and see you around the Community!
Hi there, I am having an issue with opening PDFs in Dropbox with Adobe. The only option Dropbox is giving me to open the file is "Smallpdf." I have linked my Dropbox account with Adobe desktop. Please advise.
