Hello, I've got this problem since some weeks and I've checked that in other browsers (like Edge) everything works fine.
I'm tring to open some pdf files in my webmail page (webmaildomini.aruba.it) but it doesn't open and ask me to install a Pdf Viewer Plugin, if I click on the link it brings me to Adobe Reader Dc download page, that I've already installed.
I've tried to check or uncheck the "oped pdf in system reader" option but nothing changes.
What can I do? I really need to view the pdf online without everytime downloading the files.
Thank you.
I've Windows 10 os

If you save the PDF file, you can open it in Opera?

And does the problem happens on any page?

If it happens just in one orva few, maybe those pages are sending wrong info to Opera.

Maybe is just a problem of my webmail, I've checked with Opera in another PC but same probelm.
Can you please link me a page to make different test? I've tried with yahoo mail but it uses a internal reader not a pdf viewer plugin.
Thank you in advance

Web apps may force download. Try opening this link in Opera.

All right, mate. That means we have concluded that the web app you are using forces the PDF file to download. An extension may be able to modify the headers allowing the browser to use built-in PDF viewer nonetheless, but I doubt such extension exists currently.
