Code which i used to disable pdf viewer
options.AddUserProfilePreference("download.default_directory", @"C:\temp");
                if (disableBrowserPDFViewer)
                {
                    options.AddUserProfilePreference("profile.default_content_settings.popups", 0);
                    options.AddUserProfilePreference("download.prompt_for_download", true);
                    options.AddUserProfilePreference("plugins.plugins_disabled", new[] { "Chrome PDF Viewer" });
                    //options.AddUserProfilePreference("plugins.plugins_disabled", new[] { "Chrome PDF Viewer" });
                    //options.AddUserProfilePreference("plugins.always_open_pdf_externally", false);

Since the bug was reported for 57 and we're updating to 58 right now, could you please update once your Chrome is at 58.0.3029.110?

What happens if you uncomment the plugins.always_open_pdf_externally line in your script? The PDF download settings changed to that in  bug 628014 , since chrome://plugins is gone.
