When attempting to open a .pdf file in a new tab, the tab opens but there is no data. Downgrading to an older build temporarily resolves the issue, until it automatically updates itself.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right click on .pdf URL
2. Select Open Link in New Tab
3. Click on new tab (blank)
Actual Results:  
The .pdf does not display

Expected Results:  
Open Acrobat Reader in new tab, displaying the selected file.
