Latest Indesign issue

Had to download and install V16 because of a client.
Kept 15.xxx

In 16, we no longer save back to the folder it started in. Is that a setting I can change, or do we need an update from Adobe?

That's all you got for a complaint?
How about the 'auto-activated-fonts' you can't turn off ON YOUR COMPUTER unless you go to their website, log-in, and turn them off???
Or having to send your file to Adobe's Web Conversion to make a jpeg into a PDF ???
Sigh.

InDesign 16.0 saves Converted files in last used folder, not containing folder

AWESOME UTILITY ! ! !

Voted. I love the potential of Adobe Fonts, but the implementation (now seemingly in its second generation), is rather heavy-handed and buggy.
