prevent duplicates of pdf's

$

Dear all, I usually download articles and rename the pdf´s according to my own standards. This Pdf I then attach to the citation entry in the Mendeley program. After restarting Mendeley , the program always creates a duplicate pdf, naming it after Mendeley standards. It either stores duplicates in the directory given by Mendeley( C:\Users\..\AppData\...\Mendeley Desktop\Downloaded) or in the specified folder by me(using the function "file organizer). The problem is that Mendeley changes my Pdf automatically and uses its own Pdf and assigns it new to the entry in the program or worse creates a new entry for its own pdf. How can i prevent Mendeley to do so? And in case it is an online problem, how can i reset my online account and use the information from my local drive defined on my local program Mendeley Desktop? Thanks!
