Acrobat for Windows and Mac: User Interface

(thinking…)

Adobe "Browse for file/folder" function is poorly designed

in the new versions of Adobe, the browse for folder function - to open or save a file - is useless. Contrast it to every other conventional windows application, looking more like Windows Explorer where you can easily navigate to a folder, subfolder, file - but in Adobe, it immediately requires scrolling down, then selecting, scrolling down more, selecting a subfolder, etc.

    Hi ,

    Thanks for Reaching out to us for your Queries.
    If you are talking about the Custom dialog( that has Recent, Document Cloud, Add account etc. Panes on the left side) to Open/Save any pdf , you can always choose to turn it off whenever you wish to Open/Save any file.

    Here is how you can use the default Windows File open/Save dialog in acrobat
    1) go to Edit -> Preferences -> General -> Basic Tools
    2) Deselect the checkbox that says "Show Online Storage when Opening Files" and "Show Online Storage when Saving Files".
    3) Try File open/Save as again.

    Now you will always see only the Windows dialog.

    Let me know if that solves your concern.

    Thanks
    Ayush
