Teresa Hyatt Radke (ID: 000000e43fe3aee7) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/25/2022 It used to work but stopped. Even thought I have it enabled, I can't open any pdfs without first saving them to my hard drive. Even the messages to me on my insurance company's website must first be saved to my hard drive before I can see it. You are going to fill up my hard drive really fast with all this nonsense I don't want (nor need). Please fix this soon. Thank you for your help.
