Default Save Location in DC

I really like the new DC interface, but whoever came up with the save file dialog box and whoever approved it need to be taken to the woodshed.  I understand you're trying to promote the cloud but making your customers work harder for your convenience isn't a business model.  Please provide a way to change the default save location.  Please don't be lazy and tell me to put a shortcut in the My Documents folder.  An hour or so of programming on your part would save your customers countless extra clicks.  You're a good company.  A great company would think of their customers first.  Be great!

Hi rickhino,

There is a preference in the Preferences dialog box of Acrobat/Reader that brings back your default Save dialog box. Press [Ctrl/Cmd]+K, Select "General" on the left rail. On the right you'll see a checkbox saying "Show online storage while saving files". Check that off. You'll get your default Save dialog box. Is that what you wanted? Or there is something else too?

Thanks!

This fixed my problem. I've been annoyed with this for ages, and finally decided to search the internet for a solution. Your works perfectly, and now my work flow is no longer annoying and terrible.

Need to be able to upvote this comment 1000x.  Default behavior for most programs is to go to the location you last saved the file to.  This "save to the cloud" while it may be a nice feature for some folks, is nothing but an annoyance to work around for MY business on MY network.  It is not in my scope of interest or needs to save MY stuff to YOUR servers.

And as a matter of fact, I have to save files hundreds of times per day to a location on my company LAN.  It sucks that my system no longer simply remembers where it last was and goes to my local Documents location by default now.  Terrible, terrible decision for the majority of your business customers.

Where is the Save As/Save fxn gone??  I keep all my files in specifc folders on my personal drives for easy access.  Now when a file automatically saves to the cloud without asking where to save, it is such a hassle to go to the cloud to retrieve and save back into my folders.  Please fix this feature!!

Hi there,

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

Would you mind sharing a small video recording of the steps you are doing and the issue for more clarity.

 

What is the version of the OS and the Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 24.02.20687 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

 

Let us know how it goes.
