    pdf files no longer open in IE 10 browser.


    I upgraded to IE 10 in May 2013 and pdf files opened in the browser window just like I wanted them to.

    However, for the last couple of days they are opening in separate Adobe Reader windows and I can't figure out how that happened.

    I am running:

    Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
    IE 10.0.10.
    Adobe Reader 11.05

    All applications have the most current updates.

    If there's a simple solution I haven't been able to find it.

    Any clues?

    I'm still looking for an IE10 tutorial.

    After trying several of the remedies with no success I uninstalled it and downloaded a fresh install.

    Works now.
