Unable to Set Adobe Acrobat as Default PDF Viewer

[tacchi123]

Hi, I own Adobe Acrobat PDF reader, but no matter what I do, the PDF opens in Microsoft Edge. I am not sure what I am missing, but nothing seems working now. Is this a glitch or only issue with my PC? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Fixed it finally following the steps here. https://www.thetechminute.com/set-adobe-reader-default-pdf-viewer-windows-10/  I had done almost everything right except for uninstalling Adobe Reader. It was conflicting with the default settings. Uninstalling Adobe Reader resolved the issue and now Acrobat reader is the default PDF viewer.
