I'd like to view documents in separate windows.

Every other application I use allows me to open new documents in separate windows. 

 

For some reason, in Adobe Acrobat DC, everything is combined into 1 window.

 

Where in the settings can I change that?

I've been struggling with this since the update. Seems that the option to open in separate windows is no longer available? Is there a new (well-hidden) way to get this activated?

For those wondering the same thing, it's in the preferences.  Adobe automatically groups them, and you have to tell it not to.

Make sure to scroll down and click "OK" when you make any changes to preferences.  Then you'll have to restart the app.
