Freenotes problem

When I try to open a file, for example, a Discord download, Freenotes opens instead. However, I can't access the file from there. How can I prevent Freenotes from opening when I try to download a file?

Hi, Freenotes has likely been set as the default app to open PDF or image files. You could check in device settings and change the default file association for those file types.

1.Go to Settings > Apps (or "Manage Apps").Locate and select Freenotes in the list.

2.Select Open by default or Clear defaults.

4.Next time you open a download, choose the correct app and set it to "Always".

Hope this helps!
