Acrobat Not Adding Locally Created Files to Recent Files

New Here ,
May 03, 2024 May 03, 2024

Recently, I have noticed that Adobe Acrobat no longer adds any files that I have created locally to Recent Files. External PDFs, things I have downloaded from others, all of those get added to Recent Riles. But the vast majority of the time, any PDF I create does not, either right after creation, or when I open them later. Even if I modify the PDF and re-save it, Acrobat does not add it to Recent Files. 

 

This happens whether using the new Acrobat or old Acrobat UI

This just started happening recently. Anyone have this experience or have any explanation?

This looks like an issue on your computer. What is the OS and version? What is the Version of your Acrobat?

MacOS, current version. I should mention that almost all the files that I create go straight into Dropbox, so this COULD be related to the underlying changes MacOs mad to how they handle Dropbox files. I am investigating.

Same here, current version of Acrobat is not showing recent files from my desktop, that syncs with Dropbox. This has never been an issue until recent update.
