Hi,

Since we upgrade to Windows 10, Edge has been configured to the default file association for .pdf file. Our users have different version of Adobe. We got a lot of phone calls asking help to set Adobe as default file association.

We cannot use GPO. Reason one is the version of Adobe program is not standard in my organization. Some users use Adobe Reader, the others use Adobe Acrobat. Reason two is we want to allow user to select their file association. GPO will keep changing back to the customized file association every reboot.

I wonder if there is a way to trigger the pop up notification like the image below, asking user which program you want to use to open .pdf when user firstopen a .pdf file. I remember the old OS has this. Is it possible to get this in Windows 10? I want this to happen for any new profiles. Please help!
