Acrobat Pro DC (Removing files from Recent list)

[cindyk38242873]

Hi,

Anyone know how to remove files from the Recent List - any insights would be greatly appreciated.

[Question moved to Acrobat General Troubleshooting -Mod.]

When you open Acrobat and see the "Home" page, if you select each "recent" file individually, a menu will appear on the right that allows you to "remove file from recent list". If you check "select all" for your recent files, this menu will not appear. Seems like a glitch of some sort.

Hi Cindyk,

Sorry for the delay in response.

When you open the application and go to Home > Recent, you can select multiple files to delete them once.

Select the files from the list and click on Remove from recent option provided at the right-hand side of the window.

As mentioned by Jannal above, when you checkbox for "Select all" the option "remove from recent" does not appear.

That will only happen if there is any file in the list which is a "Shared file".

If there are no Shared files, you can select all and remove them from recent.

Otherwise, you need to uncheck the shared files from the recent list, then the option will reappear to remove the files from recent.

This is an as designed behavior.

Hope that answers your query.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Meenakshi
