adobe acrobat windows size limitation since last update

[Brandon Dillon]

have a few computers that it seemed like an update was forced upon in the last week and now we are limited to how small we can make the adobe window and its just too big for what we do and it was not doing this before this update, have tried one reg hack and removing it and reinstalling but nothing works is there a way around this or are we stuck with this large minimal window sizing?

thank you

Hi Brandon Dillon,

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry about the trouble caused.

As we understand, you can only minimize the application window to a limit. Is that correct?

If yes, please share the screen recording showing what happens when you try to minimize the application window. Also, please share the Acrobat and OS version numbers in use.

Ensure that you are using the latest version of the application. In Acrobat, go to Menu > Help > Check for updates. For more information on the latest updates, please refer to the following help document: https://adobe.ly/3HwCnxY. See if that helps.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Meenakshi

it was the latest update that broke it and its windows 11 pro, we found the revert back to old Adobe setting and that fixed it.

It would help to know the OS and version # of it. 

This is the smallest I could go on a 4K monitor using Windows 11:

Acrobat 2025.001.20630

Windows 11 24H2, KB5063878

ya the smallest we could do was like 1/3 your screen on a 40 inch 4k

Edition Windows 11 Pro
Version 24H2
Installed on ‎10/‎19/‎2024
OS build 26100.4946
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.197.0

Hi @Brandon Dillon

Thanks for reaching out. And sorry for the troubled experience. 
Could you elaborate on what you mean by "reverting to old settings" fixed the issue? And is it possible you can share a video showing the problem? 

Thank you for your patience and support.

He updated Adobe to its prior version (prior to the most recent update). I'm having the same issue: i.e., each Adobe window takes up approximately 1/3 of my screen (regardless of the size of my screen) and I am unable to reduce the width.

Same here. The Acrobat window has a minimum size now. Maybe in the last few weeks. Maybe i hadn't noticed. But today i need to compare several all at once and i can not.

The width and height of the window is a little less than 1/3 and that is the smallest it will go.

Lastest Acrobat (64-Bit 25.001.20630) and win 11 Pro

The windows are 1800px wide. 

Photoshop i can reduce down to just the menu bar, maybe 500px. Which is great. 

Any one know the setting that will "make it go back the way it was" ?

thanks
