Trouble Moving Project Files Back to Creative Cloud Storage

Hello Adobe team,

I need to share my recent experience with Creative Cloud Projects, which has been very frustrating.

- First, I lost access to a very large Illustrator Cloud Document (600 MB, a masterplan) that suddenly disappeared from Projects.
- Recovery was extremely difficult, and it took escalation to back-end support to finally locate the file.
- In addition, I discovered that Projects are disconnected from Files. There is no way to move a document from one Project to another, or from Projects back into Files.
- This creates confusion and serious risk: critical work gets stuck inside a Project with no way to organize or back it up properly.

For professional workflows, this is a huge problem. Projects should not act as “traps” for files.
We need the ability to freely move or convert files between Projects and Files, and a clearer system to manage these containers.

I strongly recommend Adobe to improve integration between Projects, Files, and Libraries, and to add a clear method for recovering or exporting Project files.

This experience has been very concerning, and I hope Adobe will take it seriously for future updates.

you generally cannot. only certain file types can be used with adobe's libraries etc.
