I created a interactive button to go back to the top of my document. I then deleted them all and recreated the button, however, now there are two buttons showing on the pages even though I can only interact with the new one. The old one does not have any data but when I open the document up again it is showing "back to top" on both buttons. I have screenshots but I'm not sure how to upload them.

Basically it won't let me delete the first interactive button I made, its just a blank box that I can move around but can't edit properties.

Use the Redaction tool to remove it.

Please refer to the following KB doc which discusses the similar scenario Delete interactive buttons on all pages

That is correct I'm trying to delete interactive buttons in a PDF using Acrobat Pro. The blank buttons do not show up in the fields to delete alphabetically, and when looking at heir properties they don't have a name. I cannot edit any of the properties I can only move them.
