Answer

I read the above answer and did the exact same thing. My needs are exactly the same as that OP. But when I rebooted my laptop, it showed none of the pdfs that I opened in last boot.

How do I make it possible? Is there a way?

btw, I'm on ubuntu.

I'm absolute linux beginner, so I'd love some guidance on how to install anything.

Why didn't I use chrome viewer?

Because chrome scrolling absolutely sucks in linux (even after doing everything like getting extension, getting imwheel etc). I tried chromium linux browser, it sucked as well for my purpose.

Why didn't I use firefox?

Its pdf reader was really great. But when I'd reboot and open firefox,this happened:

File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at /media/username/2A84B1604F54EF23/myfolder/myfile/mytopic/mysubtopic/mybookname.pdf.

Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors. Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

Ofc, Neither the name is error, nor the file has been moved. That’s why I’m asking the question.

I tried the fixes for everything (chrome+firefox) in askubuntu.com. It didn't work.

Edit:

I saw this Answer. I'd try this out. But I'd be happy with updated answers(even if they're on that post itself).

I tried to install mupdf using terminal, it didn't work (even though it kind of told it succeed).

I followed this article

Looks like this is command based, I don't want that hassle. I just want a normal pdf viewer.

I'm not an expert in Ubuntu but I've been using for a while and Okular usually solves this for me. You can download it in the software store, it's pretty simple.
