Downloading pdf link

When I click on a link that is a pdf file in firefox, it won't open. A Adobe begins to open but then I get an error message. It says it cannot be downloaded, try saving to local storage and retry. However, I am clicking on the pages option to save the pdf already. I haven't located anything in the menu or settings to fix this issue.

I recomend downloading it to your device and opening it with a dedicated .pdf viewer application.

I had a very disturbing and sketchy call from "firefox tech support". The call came from 800-277-6568. I believe this is either a scam or a real weirdo is on the payroll! Beware of Rahul aka Steve!

Thank you. So wished I had that prior knowledge. Just going to disable this now. Been busy changing all of my accounts. Fun afternoon.
