Adobe doesnt remember last save location

[dperacchi]

When we save pdf documents from Outlook Adobe does not remember the last save file location.  It takes us back to a temp location.

How do we fix this?

Adobe Standard 11.0.20; Windows 10

Hi Davidf,

Feel free to update this discussion in case you need further assistance.

Sandbox was already turned off. My issue started when an Adobe update was installed.Here's what i did to resolve this issue. 

I installed Adobe Reader DC; Rebooted PC; Made Reader default; Confirmed "Save" function returns you to last saved location by saving a document twice.  Opened Adobe Standard, Changed it to default; Saved a file twice to confirm it returned me to last "save" location.

Has Adobe fixed this problem yet? I have Adobe Pro and cannot install Reader just to make these moves.

Thank you!
