After some last Windows10 update the MSEdge was set as the default PDF files viewer. When I switch it back to Acrobat, it returns again as before. I tried it more times using the right mouse with checked option, in settings/default apps by file type, nothing helps. No option to see the Edge setting. Can it be set somehow?

OR – how to get rid completely that loutish sw? Normal way doesn’t work…

Thanks for any advice

What I do is default apps, then at the bottom there is "set defaults by app", click Adobe Reader and then on Manage and set them all to Adobe except for the security settings.
This seems to get it to 'stick' on our work PC's.
