Color Settings not synchronised with Acrobat on Win 11

[David3558580056si]

I am running the lastest Adobe suite for PhotoShop, InDesign, Illustrator and Acrobat on Win 11 PC.
I have synchronised my color settings in Bridge, but the synchronised color settings does not show up in Acrobat - All others (PhotoShop, InDesign, Illustrator) are okay.

- Is there a trick to get Acrobat to recognise the synchronised colour settings file?
- Is it a bug?

- On my Mac I do not have this problem - Only on Win 11 PC.

Any ideas please...

Thanks and regards,

@David3558580056si The synchronization process relies on the color settings file being in a specific location that all applications can access. Is it possible that on your Windows 11 PC, Acrobat doesn't have the correct permissions or is looking in a different directory than the other apps?

On Windows, the user-specific color settings files are typically located in
C:\Users\[your_username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Color\Settings.

Ensure that the .csf file you created is present in this folder. You might also want to check the permissions of the Adobe\Color\Settings folder to ensure Acrobat has read access.

Thank you for the prompt reply - much appreciated!

Yes, my colour settings file is in the correct directory/folder - C:\Users\[your_username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Color\Settings.

One thing I did, to fix it, was to turn off 'Enable protetced Mode at startup', under Preferences, Security (Enhanced).

Some how I found another post that suggested the above, and it worked.

- But on the Mac you do not have to do this - it works as it should (??!!)...

Thanks again!
