I have an issue with removing a recent file from adobe acrobat reader DC on my mac. When I select it, it is not giving an option to remove from recent files option. The file is like stuck in the recent folder section. Other files I open and close, I am able to remove them from the recent folder section. It is also coming up in the shared for signature page. it is like stuck in something like document cloud as a certificate maybe. I am not sure how to remove it and it just came up today. I am signed in with my username and password, and when I log out, the PDF file disappears. it seems like it is stuck in my account. I am using adobe acrobat reader dc for mac. please advise as to how to delete the file from the recent folder.

Thanks..

    Hi Ilya,

    The file which is appearing is your Recent file list is probably a Shared file for Signature. Its a shared workflow file and either you may have initiated a Send For Signature workflow or you may be a participant in this workflow sent by someone else and that is the reason its appearing in your Recent list.

    As of now, there is no direct way to remove this file from Recent file list, but as you open more files, this file will go down in the list eventually getting removed from the list. Hope this helps.
