I have been using edge as a pdf viewer for a long time but one day suddenly the PDF won't open on the Edge app, when I press open on the browser it will just flash and ask me if I want to download it again. It will just keep looping and I'm not dealing with corrupted PDF because I have tried different PDF and different browser like Google and Adobe Acrobat. How do I fix it as I like using it to view Pdf. Btw it works on my laptop but not on my desktop.

Both of the system is Windows 11 on the latest update.

    Hi, Ng1234QK

    Welcome to the Microsoft community.

    Regarding the issue with Edge PDF browsing, you can first try switching to a different Edge PDF Viewer to see if it resolves your problem.

    edge://flags/#edge-new-pdf-viewer

    After that check the PDF settings in Edge.
    edge://settings/content/pdfDocuments?search=pdf

    You can also try using different versions of Edge to see if that works.

    If none of these solutions work, I recommend using Edge's feedback feature (Alt+Shift+I) to report the issue you're experiencing.

    Best regards
