Question

PDF "save as" auto path set to weird temp file location

Instead of giving me the option to "save as" to the last location where I "saved as", PDF's now automatically want to save to some temp file. I'm receiving hundreds of invoices which I save to just a few locations, but now for each invoice I have to backtrack and find the correct place to save to. This is extremely time consuming and makes no sense!

Is there any way to set Adobe Acrobat to the way it used to be?

    You can't change how it works, but it usually works correctly. Are these

    files saved on your local computer when you open them, or are you opening

    them from inside an email or a web-page, or something like that?

    The ones I'm currently working on are in email (Outlook). Any pdf file which opened from Outlook has the same result, regardless of who sent them. I can't recall now if those I downloaded from the bank (ie web-page) worked correctly, though. I'll check just now.

    Thank you for the offer, but I think it would be easier to try and revert to the previous version of Adobe Acrobat. that worked properly.

    Unless there's someone else who knows which settings to change in order to fix this?


    Does no-one know how to fix this problem?
