Saving changes in attached pdf's automatically in the right directory

I have the Zotero standalone and Zotero / zotfile Mozilla plugin & I am using the most recent version of each. For pdf viewing I use Adobe Acrobat reader.
When I change a pdf attached to a reference in Zotero standalone, e.g. mark the text or add a comment, and close it afterwards, Zotero asks me were to save the pdf, but does not directly open the directory in which the pdf is stored - so I have to manually go the directory were the file is stored. That is very timeconsuming, how can I fix that?
  • This is actually entirely and Adobe issue and has nothing to do with Zotero. See here for a solution:https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/241965/#Comment_241965
  • Thanks, that helped a lot!

    --> in Adobe Acrobat: Basically, you need to go to "Edit" and scroll all the way to the bottom and find "Preferences" (or hit Ctrl + K). Select "General" in the Categories pane. Deselect the box which says "Show online storage when saving files". Scroll to the bottom and click "OK". This should return to the old Adobe functionality.
