Adobe Acrobat DC recently updated, but it looks like the redaction tool is gone. Need help please!

Can someone either tell me where it is or suggest a similar tool? I need it badly for work and would sincerely appreciate it!

There are two ways to get to this search function. One is at the top of the right hand pane:

The second location you can find this search tool is at the top of the Tools page:

If you cannot find the redaction tool, chances are you are running Acrobat Standard and not Pro - redaction is a Pro only feature.
