Machine/connection is not slow (Core i7, 8GB RAM, premium SSD, 100mbit fibre). I'm on Opera 36 stable, Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. I hope the extension has not made some permanent changes to my installation that removing the extension did not undo. I will note that the extension's options page is now also a blank screen on Opera 36, whereas on Opera 35 and earlier it displayed fine. Disabling and even uninstalling the extension has had no effect.

I had the Per-plugin content settings extension installed so that I could have click-to-play for all plugins except PDF (which would always just load). I do have the Adobe Acrobat plugin installed on my computer, ver 11.0.01.

I suppose this proves the issue is at a level below that. There are no Adobe plugins installed, and no matter how many times I download and install Adobe Acrobat, it is never installed in FF. Ask to Activate prompts you to turn on the plug-in while opening PDFs in the browser. Always Activate sets the plug-in to open PDFs in the browser.

Choose an appropriate option in the drop-down list next to the name of the plug-in. Switching between the plugin options 'load all content' and 'click to play' makes no difference, except that with click-to-play, the white screen still occurs and then once the PDF reader does load, I need to click to display it. Adobe today announced a big update to its Acrobat extension for Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge the addition of basic PDF editing tools. In the Add-ons Manager window, click the Plugins tab, then select Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader. If I load a PDF file that is on my local machine, it works, but takes a few seconds longer than on the old PDF viewer. Occasionally, it doesn't load at all, and there remains just a white screen. Sometimes the PDF's just take a very long time to load (far longer than previously for identical files), and other times it only loads if I refresh the PDF URI after trying to load it from a link.

It appears Opera 36 uses the new version of Chrome's PDF viewer, and it does not as seem as quick or stable as the old one. Other interesting free Windows alternatives to Adobe Acrobat Reader are Foxit Reader (Free Personal), PDF Reader (Freemium), Okular (Free, Open. Launch Google Chrome, and type chrome://plugins/ into the address bar, Hit enter to launch the plugins settings tab. I am seeing this problem as well with the built-in viewer.
