Adobe Acrobat update broke OneDrive files showing up in Recent

I updated to the latest version of the continuous release, 2024.001.20615, using the Help >  Check For Updates on macOS 14.4. I can open the files within the OneDrive macOS app, but I do not see them updating on the Recent. 

 

All settings are turned on:

1. Open PDFs from last session on Acrobat launch > Checked

2. Privacy & Security > Files and Folders > Adobe Acrobat > Full Disk Access > OneDrive > Checked

3. Privacy & Security >  Full Disk Access > Adobe Acrobat > Checked.

 

In addition, I unistalled and reinstalled the Adobe Acrobat from the Creative Cloud App multiple times. Still the same problem with the Adobe Acrobat Pro Continuous Release | Version 2024.001.20604 and Continuous Release | 2024.001.20615.

 

Lastly, I have also checked with my othet MacBook Pro 14.4 and facing the same problem with Adobe Acrobat Pro. Please fix this problem as I need to access the OneDrive files in Recent. 

Correct answer PravalJain

Apologies for the inconvience. This issue is fixed in the latest update. Release notes - https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/ReleaseNotesDC/continuous/dccontinuoussep2025sec.html#dccontinuousseptwentytwentyfivesec.

 

Please do a "Help -> Check for updates" to update to the latest version and let us know if you still see issues.

And that is interesting: The version acrobat DC 25.001.20693 is working fine on MacOs 26.

This is true not only for PDF on OneDrive, but alos for the PDFs on DropBox and Google Drive.
Unless you setup an Others file storage and open them by there.

Yes, I confirm it has been fixed for OneDrive and Google Drive desktop app files. Thank you @S. S and @pravs for reproducing the bug and making it a priority to fix it. All others for expressing your concerns and reporting the issue to the Adobe Engineering Team to take swift action. I am glad that the problem has been fixed. However, this took close to six months. I hope Adobe prioritizes fixing these kinds of fundamental issues swiftly next time.

What is the actual problem? Files not showing up in a list of recently opened files is not a problem.

Although, "Documents in the recently used list is set to 100" and the files opened in the OneDrive desktop app are not showing up in the Home > Recent. If this isn't the problem, then what could be the problem? Previous versions displayed OneDrive files in the recent files list without any problems. After March 20th, 2024 release 2024.001.20615, this recent file display list was broken.
