Chrome custom tab crashes if chrome browser is disabled by the user in his device

Question

I am trying to open pdf file in chrome custom tab, it works fine by using this code

CustomTabsIntent.Builder builder = new CustomTabsIntent.Builder();
CustomTabsIntent customTabsIntent = builder.build();
customTabsIntent.launchUrl(this, Uri.parse("https://docs.google.com/viewerng/viewer?url=" +pdflink));

But the problem is, if the user have disabled chrome from app settings and there is no other browser it crashes. So how can i open it in the chrome custom tab if it is disabled.

Thanks in advance.

this is the exception that is showing up in the logcat.

 Caused by: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=https://docs.google.com/... (has extras) }

Try this:

CustomTabsIntent.Builder builder = new CustomTabsIntent.Builder();
CustomTabsIntent customTabsIntent = builder.build();

try {
customTabsIntent.launchUrl(this, Uri.parse("https://docs.google.com/viewerng/viewer?url=" +pdflink));
} 
catch (ActivityNotFoundException e)
{
    // display message to user
}
