Cannot fix accessibility issues in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC

Question

I have just updated my Adobe Acrobat Pro DC (now Version 2015.006.30527) via Creative Suite and I use to be able to run the accessibility report and expand the issues to fix. I could right click on the issue and select "Fix" but I can no longer do this.

How do I get this functinality back?

The accessibility checker pane now looks like the following where you cannot expand or right click to fix issues:

This is how the old version of the accessibility checker use to look - where you could expand the issues and right click to fix.

I would love to know how to get the old version displaying and working again.

Thanks

If you'd like an improved accessibility checker, as well as an improved (and more accurate) Preflight/Fixer for accessibility issues, then upgrade to the latest Acrobat 2022 (version 22.001.20085). https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/ReleaseNotesDC/index.html

The GUI in later versions of Acrobat was improved, as well, to accommodate today's high-resolution monitors. You shouldn't have a problem seeing the expansion arrows in version 2022.

Your version is from 2015 and there has been an update to the PDF/UA-1 standards since it was released. That means more accurate checking and fixing in Acrobat.

If your Creative Suite license is active, the latest version of Acrobat is free with your subscription.
