Combine PDF feature missing from right click option Acrobat Pro 9/Windows 7

I combine PDF's all day long and need this feature. I had it on my old computer and since moving over to the new computer I do not have the option to combine PDF's when right clicking on PDF documents. I have searched the forum and found other fixes, however none have worked, I have uninstalled and re-installed three times as well and no luck. Does anyone have any other ideas for fixes for this. I need this feature.....

Make sure you have updated to at least version 9.2. Earlier versions are not compatible with Windows 7.

If you have 64-bit Windows, in the command window type the following and press Enter, including the quotes:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu64.dll"

On 32-bit Windows, type this instead:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu.dll"


You should see a message saying it was successful. Close the command prompt window, and your context menus should be back up and running. .

I know this thread is old but, if you never figured this out, try this line instead:  

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu64.dll"
