Default Comment Name no longer changes
Running Adobe Acrobat Pro Version 2024.001.20604 on a Mac.
Previously, we could change the commenter name and make the new commenter name a default by editing the comment "Properties > General" and then checking "Make Properties Default", as detailed here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/acrobat-cc-comment-name-change/td-p/9307260
With the most recent update, "Make Properties Default" has no effect. It continually defaults back to each individual's Adobe User Name with every new comment. We can change each of them by hand, but cannot change the default behavior.
We can enable Edit>Preferences to "Always use Log-in name for author name", but that will only use the log-in name of the computer, which isn't helpful.

Our whole team is having the same issue. Make Properties Default will work if changing the color of comments, but the name will not stay changed.
Windows 10 and 11, Adobe Acrobat Pro Continuous Release Version 2024.001.20615
We have tried checking and unchecking Preferences>Commenting> "Always use Log-in name for Author name"
We tried in old and new Acrobat views
We tried changing our "Name" in Preferences>Identity (we cannot change Login Name)This is a critical issue that is slowing down our ability to deliver document reviews to our clients.

Would love to see this fixed, as it is very important to my company's workflow.
