I used to be able to view pdf files downloaded in IE but now only a small rectangle with a red x appears.
How do I fix this?

You may have just lost your file association. Open File Explorer and search for any *.pdf file. If they come up without the Adobe Icon, right click on one of them, then select open with and select "Other program" and then your ccurrent version of Adobe Reader and select the "Always use this program to open this type of file" box and select OK. That should do it. If you don't get the Reader icon to pick, reinstall Adobe Reader, but uninstall it first if you can.
