Invoices and information sent as pdf attachements in an email each need "allow" to activate. As each day, each attachment has a different number, "Remember" does not work. Need to TURN OFF this ACTIVATE function and just open the document.

Are you using the Adobe Acrobat plugin as your PDF viewer? You can change the default permission from "Ask to Activate" to "Always Activate" using the Add-ons page. Either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Plugins. Look for "Adobe Acrobat" and use the little pop-up list button to change to "Always Activate"

Success?
