This does exactly the same thing as Chrome can already do, the only difference being by right-clicking instead of through Chrome's settings. I was looking for something that allows me to open a PDF in Adobe without first having to save it (as is possible with Firefox), and this ain't it.

It does not work because this stupid extenson does not accept this path C:\Users\Win10 Pro x64\AppData\Local\SumatraPDF\SumatraPDF.exe

Right-click option is there, but nothing happens. This should be a setting in Chrome as opposed to being an extension.
