Google Chrome Won't Load PDF

My Google Chrome on Mac OS X recently decided to stop loading PDF pages for some unknown reason and now those pages are just gray when they finish loading. It is up to date and I did not set it to automatically download PDF files in the settings. None of my Chrome plugins is related to PDF. I would really appreciate any advice on how to fix this as I personally dislike downloading unnecessary files. Thank you. 70.95.44.93 (talk) 12:27, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Have you tried to remove and re-install it? Ruslik_Zero 20:17, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Hit CTRL+SHIFT+DEL or clear the browsers cache the other way and retry. Is it really a PDF file? --Hans Haase (有问题吗) 17:47, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

On macOS more likely command+shift+delete.  --Lambiam 10:10, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
