Delete a file in Adobe Acrobat Analyzer

Permanently remove files you no longer need from your workspace and all collections they belong to.

Delete a file to remove it from Adobe Acrobat Analyzer permanently. When a file is deleted, it's removed from All files and from every collection that includes it. This action cannot be undone.

Before you delete a file

Whether you can delete a file depends on how it was added and who owns it.

  • You can delete files you uploaded manually.
  • Files shared with you must be deleted by the file owner.
  • Files synced from Microsoft SharePoint must be deleted in SharePoint.
Note

Admins can only manage permissions for their users’ collections and files. If a user's collections or files must be deleted—for example, if they are deactivated or no longer have access to Acrobat Analyzer—the admin must submit a support request, and Adobe will complete the deletion on their behalf.

Delete one or more files

  1. From the Home page, select the Collections tab.

  2. Select the All Files collection.

Important considerations

  • Deleting a file permanently removes it from Acrobat Analyzer.
  • You cannot recover a deleted file.
  • Deleting a file does not affect files you don't own.
