Hello,

Acrobat recently updated (Version: 23.6.20360.0) and seems to have significnatly changed, but not in a user friendly way.  But I assume I mist be doing something wrong and I just need to make a preference change because I can't beleive Adobe would be so silly to move the document contrils to the bottom right (see screenshot). 

 

I now find the document zoom controls / page number in the bottom right, which as got to be the worst possible location for it when using monitors.  

 

Anyway, is there a way to reset Acrobat so those controls are back at the top of the page, as in the traditional location and most logical and user friendly place for them?

Through a similar post, I found the solution: View --> Disable new Acrobat. Seems easy to turn it back on if/when they fix the user interface:

I have the same issue -- spent an hour trying to find a way to move that toolbar to no avail. It is a disaster for my work flow, I am looking for other pdf programs just so I can work! If there is no way to customise toolbars in this new version, please could you post instructions on how to install an older version of Acrobat Pro?
