Attachment showing binary data when clicking View File

Recently (Since Oct 2019) we have had a problem where pdf attachments show the "binary" data instead of the actual PDF. If we use the "Open in PDF Viewer" Chrome extension it opens fine, but directly from Salesforce, it does not.  I have scoured the web this evening and cannot find anything to help.  Ideas?

Using Salesforce Classic.

Hi Corey,

Can you remove PDF file and attach again. It works for me in Classic this morning.

Yes if I remove and reattach its fine.  Obviously this isnt a solution to the problem though.

Hi Corey,

Installed this app exchange package in the org and update all your existing attachments into Salesforce files. This is a Salesforce Lab provided tool is free version and trusted.
