"The document could not be saved. This file cannot be found" Win10-Fall Creators Update

I was trying to highlight some wording then save, and also encrypt, then save, and kept getting the error dialogue from Adobe Acrobat.  Drove me nuts for 4 hours then figured it out....

In the Win10 Fall Creators update, there is a setting in:

Update & Security>Windows Defender>Open Windows Defender Security Center>Virus & Threat Protection>Virus & threat protection settings:

"Controlled folder access"

If this is turned "On", be sure to "Allow an app through Controlled folder access"

Add "Acrobat.exe" to the allowed apps.

Then it will work/save again.

Hope that helps someone else!
