PDF automatically opens with one click

Help & Support
1

Is there a way to turn this off? I do not have one click set in general for all files (making them underlined).

2

Does it only happen when the viewer pane is open?

Yes.

Either:

  • Install a PDF viewer which includes a Preview Handler (works in Opus, Windows Explorer and Outlook) or ActiveX control (works in Opus and Internet Explorer).

Or:

  • Stop Opus from attemping to view PDF files via IE/ActiveX by going to Preferences / Viewer / Viewer Plugins, configuring the ActiveX+Preview+Office+Web plugin, and removing the PDF extension from the Internet Explorer and (if also present) Generic ActiveX lines.

Option 2 did the trick. Thanks so much, Leo!!
