Downloading is not done by Acrobat Reader, but  by your browser, and it is there that the download history is kept.

Acrobat Reader has a quite separate recent files list, you can turn this off.

Also, crucially for HIPPA you must turn off saving recent files to the Cloud, I suggest turning off Cloud completely in preferences.

Hi mona7333434,

If you are using Google Chrome to download the applications :

  • In the top-right corner of the browser window, click the Chrome menu .
  • Select Downloads.
  • For each item you want to delete, click Remove from list

If you are using Firefox to download the applications :

  • Click the menu button , choose History, and then Clear Recent History.
  • Select how much history you want to clear:
  • Click the drop-down menu next to Time range to clear to choose how much of your history Firefox will clear.

Let me know if it helps.

Regards,
Aadesh
