"Use Adobe Acrobat DC (default)" is the selected action under "Applications" in "about:preferences". Actual results: Links to PDF documents continue to open in Firefox using the PDF.js viewer within Firefox. Changing the action in "about:preferences" to Save File doesn't change anything either, PDFs are still opened with the PDF.js viewer. Expected results: PDF document should automatically download and open with Adobe Acrobat DC.
