I clicked block accidently and want to unblock.

According forum I have to go to settings but I am NOT able to do that !! 

It says "Adobe Acrobat does not allow connection with: smb://....". When I click enter to close the message box, it closes and a new pop-up appears immediately, I have already clicked the OK-button more than 130 times .. but no result.

I am NOT able to start Adobe without this error and not able to adjust any setting ?

 

How to solve this issue?

    2021 Bridges does not function across SMB server connection to 10.14.6 OS Majave, 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5,

    Radeon Pro 570 4 GB Mac.  I've got 64 GB 2400 MHz DDR4, and no where to go.  

    AFP is a thing of the past as mac is no longer making servers. Large professional design firms (40 mac users+ ) that run off a server are damned. It is the end of times.

    After i clicked 151 times ok I was able to do something.

    I cleared the recent list .. had to click 151 times again and issue was gone ?

    Was not able to find the location where i "blocked"my file location.

    I changed setting recent list  into 0 documents.

    Tested .. Issue is gone -> why?

    Stupid behaviour of Adobe reader ?

    I had one report of this happening in my organization today... clicking on ok 20 times did it, then I cleared the "recent list" now there are no errors. Thanks for the clues... not sure length of file name does it ... it would appear to us it is the length of the actualy path...

    You are correct length of the directory path name not the filenames.

     

    Thank you for catching that.

    We're currently suffering with this issue as well.  I'm also not convinced that we accidentally blocked anything.  I think it might just be new behavior.  Anyone have any idea what's going on with this?  We only get the popup 5 or 6 times upon open and it seems to be related to our SMB-based access of documents in SharePoint, but we've been doing this for years and this is new.
