Edge has hijacked PDFs

I have it set to always download PDFs. its not doing this. I am getting a bar across the top and the PDF opens in edge and I then have to download it from there. 

Acrobat is set as the default app for PDFs.

How can I get it back to just downloading PDFs? If this is yet another ploy by microsoft such as 'use recommended browser settings' pop up every month then I am out, its the straw that broke the camels back.
