Optimize Scanned Document Wizard Forces "Add Document Description" popup.

Using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 2022.003.20310 I run the Optimize Scanned Document wizard.  Things didn't go as planned.

 

First, when Add Folder is selected, the "wizard" picks up all sorts of file types.  How can this be limited to PDF files only?

 

Second, I cannot stop Acrobat from popping up the Add Document Description popup.  

 

Here's what I want to do:

 

Scan every PDF file in the directory structure and optimize it and then save it back.  Or is that just stupid dangerous?  But regardless, there seems to be no way to do any of this in an automated way, because the Add Document Description keeps popping up.

 

How do I run this wizard such that I don't have to keep dismissing dialog popup windows?

I have the same problem with the Document Description popup window whenever I try to batch convert to PDF/A. You say to remove this step. How?
