A PDF file I uploaded to the cloud yesterday has disappeared. Here are the steps I took:
1. I uploaded a PDF to the cloud.
2. I added comments to the file in the cloud. (I used to add comments first before uploading to the cloud, but recently Acrobat started duplicating comments after the file was uploaded to the cloud, which is really confusing and frustrating when sending the file to clients for review.)
3. I made a video for my client talking through some of my strategy for the design: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/25623232?key=f4e1a9489590c416d95644b5988f5b0d
4. I copied the link for the file and shared it with my client: https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:us:5fd1fd76-aa5a-47e5-bd6e-7b4f0e72b0b2
5. I closed Acrobat and stopped working for the day and didn't do anything else with that file or with anything related to the Creative Cloud.
This morning, my client said the link wouldn't work, so I went to test the link, and it wouldn't work for me, either. I opened Acrobat and checked the "Shared by you" list of files. The file showed up there, but as soon as I clicked on it, I got an error message saying that it wasn't accessible, and then the file disappeared from the list.
I checked https://assets.adobe.com/deleted and the file wasn't there, either.
I do still have the version saved to my computer/Google Drive, but that's the one with out any of my comments.
This is a very concerning issue, complicated by my mistrust of the process of leaving comments. Here's an old screenshot that demonstrates that separate issue:
I've searched through this message board and am not seeing any solutions. I hope that someone from the Acrobat product team can see this post and elevate this issue to address both issues.

I discovered that I had not closed the Chrome window where I had opened the file in the cloud yesterday. This screenshare video demonstrates a little more detail about what happens when I try to access that file anywhere else: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/25649646?key=7743ef281bfb6dbac01bc612f6eb9cce

Yep. Same! Now we can't trust using this feature. Too risky! Ugh.

I am having the exact same problem. I file of mine that already had comments has disappeared and I cannot find it anywhere. Would be keen to know if anyone has a solution to this.

Hi there
Hope youa re doing well.
Please login to https://adobe.ly/44NtiYw with the Adobe ID and password and try checking for your document under the 'Documents' tab and see if that works.
Let us know how it goes.

Unfortunately, that did not work. I have looked in the Documents, the Shared Links, the Deleted, and everywhere else I could think of and nothing showes the missing document. We had over 99 comments on this document, and all are lost. Is there an archive somewhere (I even checked the cloud for a copy)?
