Self explainatory, previous versions of acrobat had a setting to open pdf's in a new window. This option has been moved as far as I can tell. Where is it, and how do I stop pdf's opening in the same window.

The new Acrobat opens tabs in the same window. You need to revert to the old interface for being able to enable that option.

Hi @allan_7469,

Hope you are doing well. Thanks for writing in!

In case you are still looking for a solution, you can try the below steps:

Go to Preferences > General > uncheck the setting that says "Open documents as new tabs in the same window (Requires Relaunch)".

Once done, restart Acrobat and you should be good to go.

Let us know if this helps.

Regards,
Souvik.
