The error is not that the file lacks a title, but that the file is not set to display that title by default in the title bar.

If you use Acrobat Pro DC, you can simply right-click the error and select "Fix" and it will change the setting for you.

If you are using Acrobat Pro 11 and lower, then you can change the setting in the Document Properties -> Initial View -> Window Options ->
Show: Title

Phil.
