Hi @lee_2078,

 

Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with using Acrobat.

 

When you refer to tools disappearing, are you trying to edit a document that was shared with you? If yes, the all tools section will be limited in such cases unless you save a local copy of the document.

 

If this is not the scenario, please share a screen recording of what you see when trying to edit the file.

Meanwhile, you can refer to this help article to learn more on how to edit a PDF: https://adobe.ly/4mawDc2

 

Also, you might want to repair the installation and check if that helps (Windows only). To do so, go to Menu > Help > Repair Installation > Restart Acrobat.

 

Look forward to hearing from you.


Regards,
Souvik.
