At work, the secretary has a new computer.

When she opens a PDF from her email, it wants to send it to her scanner.

I tried to right click, open, but it opens it in separate slides.

How can I fix this?

Uninstall Adobe Reader and reinstall it.

I took a picture of the screen, I'll get it uploaded in a minute.

This is the best first step. Always always ALWAYS copy the file to the desktop before trying to open it.

 



That will solve 87% of file opening problems, and keep the user from getting a malware infection.  The copy action lets the anti-virus stuff get a look at it first.
