No Acrobat JavaScripts Config.js file in Windows 11 ??

Hi @ODuinn ,

I've been active in these support forums since 2019, and I can never get enough of Acrobat JavaScript.

That is a great question.

I still consider myself very new to Acrobat JavaScript. However, if I am not mistaken (and in reference to what I've read about the "Config.js" file), Acrobat users have had to manually create the Config.js file to extend the capabilities of Adobe Acrobat with folder-level scripting workflows.

For instance, see this old article from ACP @Thom Parker  that dates back to year 2006:

• https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/folder_level_scripts/

• https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/entering-folder-level-scripts/

See this additional discussion:

• https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-sdk-discussions/where-can-i-save-my-folder-level-user-javascripts-path-is-missing/m-p/9294358

As opposed to older versions of Microsoft Windows (and most recently with Windows 11),  I am not sure why is it that on Microsoft Windows 10 and Apple's macOS this file is created automatically.

But it is worth noting that on Windows 11 you may manually create a blank file of Config.js using Microsoft's Notepad and place it in the existing global variable folder:

• C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\Javscript

In addition, it does looks like the User variable folder is non existent on Windows 11.

It may be possible that it is not needed (as you've observed).

But for testing purposes you may manually add the "Javascripts" folder to the directory path listed below (for Windows 11) and place the Config.js file in there:

• C:\Users\"your current UserAccount"\AppData\Local\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\Javascript

You may test if this works using the examples of Thom Parker's article.
