Reopen PDFs from last session

[Michael23564157plek]

This rarely works and results my searching for the last PDFs. The real problem is that I get only a handful of recent files, while the others are several years old. Considering that I am working on new PDFs seven days a week, this should not happen and the files shown should be current.
Any ideas how to reset whatever to get the current files listed from the last session?

Hello!

Your recent PDFs aren’t showing because Windows may be using outdated indexing, cached file history, or missing folders in its search scope. To fix this, rebuild the search index via Control Panel > Indexing Options, clear File Explorer’s recent history, and switch to Enhanced search mode in Settings. Also, make sure your save folders (like Downloads or Documents) are included in indexing. Searching with filters like *.pdf and “Date Modified” in File Explorer can help surface current files.

Hi Michael23564157plek,

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry for the trouble caused.

The feature "Reopen from the last session" works only for the PDFs you open and worked on in the last session. To clarify, if you open 5 files today, work on them, and then close them before closing the application, they will not open in the next session. Only the PDFs you are working on and you close the application directly will open the next time. 

For more information, refer to the information in the following help document: https://adobe.ly/4hMyQsQ. 

Let us know if that is not the case, or if you need any help.

Thanks,

Meenakshi
