ℹ Behavior

No matter PDF viewer option not checked when opening PDFs, Edge says File not found and opens another 6 more (different) tabs. And addinatal tabs has no meaning names. Event check Deafult or custom and choose MSEdge from the opened window. This occurres every version after 7.3.0 (which is the only version works well). Now, I updated to the latest release 0.7.5.3 and tried fresh installing but the problem didn't solved yet. I am in Insider build of Edge 121.0.2277.49 and it says (Official build) stable app, beta channel (64-bit) Microsoft Edge is up to date. I tried Edge stable, Ege Beta or both options activated in Active Mode settings also not help

Microsoft Windows version

Same. And CoPilot doesn't work with service mode even though this gets fixed. I cannot use it unfortunately.

I have found this happens to me when the file path directory or the file has spaces in the name. As a current work around, try removing spaces in file path directories and file names.
