Question

Disable mandatory uploading to Adobe Cloud

We create PDF documents from within Microsoft's 365 apps. Today we were informed by a popup that saving a Word document as a PDF will result in posting to Adobe Cloud. We cannot find an opt-out. It appears that a  PDF will simply not be created if we object. Can anyone share a way to disable forced uploaqding?

Hi @Michael Linder,

 

Hope you are doing well. Sorry for the trouble.

 

This sounds strange and shouldn't be happening. Would you mind sharing a screenshot or better, a screen recording of the save screen along with the time when you see the pop-up? This will help me investigate this further along with the devs.

 

If it hinders the workflow, you can temporarily disable Adobe Cloud Storage till we get this investigated.

To do so, go to Start Menu-> Registry Editor:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown

And the Dword: bToggleDocumentCloud

and Value: 1

 

More info here: Lockable Settings

 

Look forward to hearing from you.
