I have seen this issue posted multiple times and the solutions those forums offer have not worked for me. I have Acrobat Pro DC installed on two computers. One is long-standing which I don't have this issue with, and the other was freshly installed last week on a brand new computer, which is where I am having the issue.

On my older computer, I am able to open multiple PDFs in one window, each with their own tabs. On this new computer, each PDF opens in a new window.

What I have tried:

1) In Adobe, >Edit>Preferences - The option "open new tabs in same window (requires restart)" is NOT AVAILABLE in my menu.

2) "Check for updates" in Adobe - NO UPDATES were available.

3) Checked for Windows updates, updated the computer, restarted, still the option does not exist.

What else is there to try? Why does it work on one computer and not another? What is missing?

I'm having this problem with Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.16
Pretty dumb that I can't find the tab-view feature anymore. I guess the workaround is to vew several PDF tabs in a web brawser, and open them in adobe only when I need a specific adobe feature. Makes me want to NEVER pay for an adobe product when "Give us more money" is the answer to a missing feature that used to be part of this program.
