AskWoody PlusFor Landscape monitors, Foxit Reader — careful during installation to not allow stuff you don’t want. It is possible to customize the toolbar with just the shortcuts you prefer that make the application extremely efficient. (For example, I need the View controls to quickly see a booklet correctly.) In the end I disable all internet connectivity and only re-enable to periodically check for updates.
On my portrait monitor I run Xodo from the Microsoft Store. Much simpler than Foxit. Also has a tabbed interface, which is indispensable for my use. Might want to see if Xodo does what you want / need first, before working through the extensive configuration of Foxit.
Good luck!

AskWoody PlusAmoK Playlist Copy v. 2.06 hasn’t been updated since 2011 yet runs flawlessly on the latest Windows 10 ‘Feature Update’ [1803], as it has on all the Windows incarnations since it was released.

The interface is so ugly it bends around to beauty — functional beauty.
If you have built your own collections of mp3 files saved to your local drive(s) and organized them in playlists but wish to copy / move the playlists with their corresponding files, this little app gets it done!
Dinosaurs still listening to music CDs can use AmoK Playlist Copy to prepare folders of music to burned by the outstanding utility, unfortunately still named, CDBurnerXP. It continues to be updated and is supported by its author on an associated Help forum.
Cheers!
