This popped up on my work laptop yesterday. Very annoying.

      It is. I have trouble making it the default reader. Stuff still opens in Edge. Not sure what the deal is.

        Had that issue too, search in Start for “Default Apps”, then scroll to the bottom and click “Choose default application by file type”. Then scroll to .pdf and choose Sumatra. The settings window may crash for some reason, but for me the file association did seem to stick after that.
