This just started last weekend. I have only had this laptop/software about 7 months. I don't have to do it often but I was trying to pull up my taxes from last year and the PDFs would open. They also didn't open when on the IRS.gov site.

Hi GinnyCur,
One of the causes of this error is having a large number of PDFs open in the browser at the same time. Can you try closing other open PDFs and see if you're then able to open the PDF that's currently giving this error?
Thanks!

I have tried other sites than the two mentioned above and it is happening with them also.
It is a PDF and happened with Freetaxusa.com and irs.gov.
Can you send a screenshot of the error, what plugin? Pdf or flash? Is it enabled in Edge, also try other websites. It could be a issue with their website. Are you able todownload the pdf and try.
