Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 had a menu bar with tool options.  Is there a way to have this same classic menu bar in Adobe Acrobat DC Pro?

For better or worse, no. The vast majority of the user interface for Acrobat was changed after Acrobat 11, i.e., for Acrobat 2015 and DC. There is no mode for providing the old menus and interfaces. That having been said, the current version of Acrobat does allow for significant customization of the top tool bar.

 I don't even have a view item in my menu? Where can I find that? I can't stand this new set up at all. I have never been so irritated in my life.

Quote: "The NEW reader was/is missing the top menu bar. This version had a vertical tool bar and the other tools were on the left instead of the right where I was accustomed to seeing them. After some playing around and looking for a solution on the community forums I found if you click on the hamburger in the upper left corner, a drop down window appears and the choice to "Disable the New Acrobat Reader" is listed. Click that and reaunch and voila the Menu bar etc. returns"

I can tell you that after being an avid fan of pro, I now hate it. Absolutely hate what they have done to the menu. I don't have the time to spend 15 minutes looking for simple buttons. Who is the brainiac that thought this was a good idea?
