Adobe Acrobat is saving copies of Adobe Ads to my Google Drive

[Abigail31543653ouid]

When I send a copy of a pdf to my google drive, it also sends a txt. copy of an Abobe Acrobat ad. This only started happening in the last week. Why is it doing this? I have no way to stop if from sending a copy of “edit, sign and share PDF files on the go...”. It shows up as a separate txt. file, saved to my google drive. I now have hundreds of these little files clogging my drive.

This is the the txt.:

Edit, Sign and share PDF files on the go. Download Acrobat Reader for mobile: https:/adobeacrobat.app.link/getApp.txt

Hi Abigail31543653ouid,

Thank you for reaching out.

Could you please let us know how you are saving the PDF to Google Drive?

It would be helpful if you could share the screen recording of the steps you do.

Are you using a desktop or a mobile device? 

Share the Acrobat and OS versions on the device.

Thanks,

Meenakshi

Yes, it is corrected. As of today it is no longer saving a copy of Adobe ads onto my Google Drive. Thank you

Did it work?

[Lee31931101pskv]

Ok, but my Adobe app doesn't show an update available. Did you just reinstall the app?

Hi @Lee31931101pskv,

The latest version (23.08.00) should be available on the Store for download.
