Half way through a project my DC has just updated automatically, rendering my copy of Imposition Wizard plug in useless. Does anyone know how to revert back to an old version of DC? I can do it in CC for apps like Photoshop etc but there isnt the same option for DC. Thanks in advance.

First , disbale automatic update from the Acrobat.

 

The second thing that I can think of is answered here: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html

 

It seems that you can revert to a previous version or rollback but using the Creative Cloud with your user account.

 

If this method doesn't work this would be my favorite approach:

 

  • disable to CC Desktop app (for troubleshooting purpose only) download the full offline installer version from here : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-downloads.html
  • This is a standalone setup program of the Acrobat. You don't need to login to the creative cloud service online nor use the Creative Cloud desktop app to install. Some users are able to find this method useful.
  • Uninstall your current version
  • Reinstall the latest version from the link provided above for the full offline installer

Hopefully the idiots are reading.

Bring back every regular toolbar.

What's this custom nonsense?

you mean custom you're screwed.

The new version sucks so much, if it was an olympic sport they'd win gold every time

Similar problem.  I was using Acrobat DC and had a need fror the redacting tool.  Purchased a 1 month subscription to DC Pro.  That has expired but all my pdfs have converted to DC Pro recently.  My account with Adobe only shows the brief DC Pro but not my prior account products.  How do I remove DC Pro entirely and revert to my old DC?

What version is your old Acrobat Pro?

 

And what operating system are you using with it?

Not Adobe pro; Acrobat DC (2015 I think).  Microsoft OS.
