Hello,
Until last week, it was possible to add PDF files directly as attachments to a Microsoft Outlook mail.
Now an additional button has been added where a link is shared and the file is shared through Adobe's cloud service.
Is it possible to turn off the option to send the file as a link (and thus upload it to the cloud) by default? So that all files go directly to Outlook as attachments by default again?

Refer to the screenshot attached below:
Thanks,

...This is the solution that actually works, well done.
While using Acrobat application:
You can click on file menu > preferences > email accounts> uncheck send as attachment link
If link generate while attaching PDF in outlook app:-
go to: file menu > options > add-in > go > you will see two Acrobat related add-in,
uncheck document cloud for outlook (keep PDF maker option enable)

Another method to disable this would be through the registry.
To do so, go to the location - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown\cCloud
Create a DWord: bAdobeSendPluginToggle
Value: 1.
This registry key disables the Adobe Send and Track plugin for Outlook, preventing the upload of attachments to Adobe Document Cloud.
You can also control how Outlook behaves with attachments directl
