If it's not for you you don't have to use it - you can choose not to use it - like any feature in InDesign, like I don't do any Indexing or Cross-References so I simply don't use those features @Eugene Tyson   The problem with these pop-up "Learn More" ads is just this: You DO have to look at them. You DO have to interrupt your work to put them away. You CANNOT choose not to see them and you ARE required to deal with them one way or another. They are INTRUSIVE and you can't turn them off. So it's just not correct to say "you can choose not to use it" in this instance.  I've been using Adobe software for a LONG time, and I'm NOT HAPPY to contemplate using something else; I'm annoyed into thinking about using something else. There IS a big learning curve for that decision. The simple fact that many Adobe users ARE contemplating departure, in spite of the difficulty, should tell you something. Forcing users to look at annoying pop-ups is another item on a growing list of ways Adobe seems to be getting in its customers' way. If you subscribe to a box of chocolates for years and years, but then the company starts hiding the chocolates you like under layers and layers of new chocolates you don't like, and makes you spend an hour throwing the bad ones away before you can get to the good ones... well... you might start looking around to see what the other companies are offering.  IMO, Adobe is willing to use its near-monopoly power to take advantage of its own customers. And reading responses like that of @Abhishek Rao doesn't give me any confidence at all that Adobe is actually "working hard on it," as you seem to believe. I think the best you can say is that they're thinking about working on it.  But actual competitors are rising, and the monopoly ice Adobe is skating on is starting to thin. ... View more

For heaven's sake, just let us turn them OFF! You say you're always striving to make InDesign better? Better for who? I think you see dedicated users as a resource to be mined, not customer base to be served. ... View more

I agree. Adobe has completely lost its way. They recognize that these things annoy a LOT (maybe most) of users, but they're too busy trying to REPLACE their users with AI to worry about this. Seriously contemplating joining the rebellion. ... View more

I give up. It's like the community experts in this string are missing the point on purpose. Not listening. Just protecting a little kingdom. "Just move along. Nothing to see here." Last word is yours. ... View more

i'm curious how you know that downvoting does not have many fans. I wonder if the non-"expert" participants have ever been asked if they would find this a useful feature--if they think it might add a little useful restraint. ... View more

And both dialogs can be set to show a specific folder as the default (or not). It's not a feature that only the later one has. By @try67 I'm sorry, but after doing a good bit of research on this, I think you are just mistaken. Do you know how to change the default folder location in this dialogue? Even changing the default for the whole system in File Explorer didn't change it in the Acrobat-presented dialogue. Everything I could find indicates that the solution to this problem is for the application author (Adobe) to join the modern world and stop using this archaic option.   ... View more

I would love it if anyone can explain how to set the default folder in the old-style folder finder. According to various tech-help websites I found by searching "Browse for folder" in the Windows search bar, it's not possible to change anything about this. ... View more

OK, well I think the screenshot below is the standard Windows OS folder selection dialog. It's the one Adobe uses in Photoshop when I export a bunch of .jpgs at once.  AND, unlike the one Acrobat is using, it is designed to be easy to navigate without memorizing your whole file directory from the inside out. AND it defaults to the last used folder or to the folder of the source file, based on a setting I can set. In short, it's EASY to use. The one Acrobat uses is CUMBERSOME by comparison. You say that it's used in many applications, but I never see it apart from this single function in Acrobat. And it is NOT used in the other place I know of in Adobeland that wants me locate and select a folder to put some files in. ... View more

From my previous post in this thread: "Incidentally, I have discovered that Microsoft OneDrive does not display the same file the same way on the same browser, so it looks like this is not simply a question of how the browser handles it, but a question of how the website presents it." Also, is there a way to share a pdf file from Acrobat that DOESN'T employ the Adobe cloud system?  Either way, it's clearly NOT a problem that is isolated in the browser, which is what has been marked as a "correct answer" here.   ...

By engaging in some long conversations with actual Adobe employees, I have learned that @Bernd Alheit's answer was not accurate. In fact, it was kind of a guess, not really based on any actual knowledge of what settings various browsers "ignore." Both of you completely ignored the fact that other cloud systems, OneDrive AND Google drive, successfully displayed THE SAME FILE according to the settings on the browsers you claim are ignoring these settings. Adobe has acknowledged that this is an issue with their cloud system, and not with the browser. This is actually the correct answer to my question; I hope other Community members will find this information helpful. ... View more

What's wrong with the reply? I found it... disappointing: failing to fulfill one's hopes or expectations incomplete: not complete; lacking some part. buck-passing: avoiding responsibility by shifting it to another. My question was a sincere, respectful question. It was about how the Adobe cloud website displays an Adobe generated file. Your initial response to my post just said that these browsers ignore this particular setting, but you didn't propose any other solution. So I tried to clarify what I was looking to do, in case there might be an alternative. Your curt command to contact someone else was a bit rude for someone who "speaks for Adobe." And it didn't actually answer the question, except in a sort of passive-aggressive way. If the answer is, "I don't know of any way to do what you're trying to do," then say so. So... disappointing, incomplete, and buck-passing. Incidentally, I have discovered that Microsoft OneDrive does not display the same file the same way on the same browser, so it looks like this is not simply a question of how the browser handles it, but a question of how the website presents it.  ...

rob_day, Thank you for the specific, helpful responses. My problem arose, apparently, when this feature was seemingly randomly applied to styles in documents created before the feature was added.
