    Hello all,

    The 'Apply to all' checkbox has been brought back in the Replace missing link dialogue.

    'Apply to all' checkbox was removed when we introduced the 'Auto-relink' (search for missing links in this folder) functionality, as we though 'auto-relink' is going to take care of the 'replace all' workflow as well. But it didn't work as expected in few cases as pointed out by some of you.

    Hence, with the latest release V29.2 (full roll out happens on Jan 9), we have decided to revert to the earlier experience whereby we are bringing back 'apply to all' checkbox and rolling back the 'auto-relink functionality.

    Glad to see we have this function back. V29.2 is not showing up as an available download in Creative Cloud. Supposed to be released yesterday. Is there another option for uprgrading?

    I just updated to v28.6 and I don't see this dialog box when replacing files. I agree with many of the comments that say just put back what was there before. It worked very well. What was broken that needed fixing? Is there a Hippocratic Oath for coders? First do no harm...

    Will the apply all or replace all checkboxes be restored in the next update? When can we expect this to be released?
