Combining files automatically merge as a Portfolio!?!?

In the past couple of months, everytime I try to combine 2 or more PDFs into 1 PDF, Acrobat is pulling/merging it as a Portfolio!?!?!? I do not want this & don't understand how or what changed.  I have Acrobat Pro DC.  Help!  Does anyone know how to fix this?

 

Thanks.

Hi Becki,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

Please use the following steps to disable the creation of a Portfolio:

1. In Acrobat, go to Tools > Combine Files. 

2. Click on Options in the Combine Files window.

3. Uncheck the Save as PDF portfolio box and click on the OK button to save the changes.

Thank you so much!!  That was too easy once I was told there is an options box in the Combine files.  Not sure how it got checked, but all should be good for me now!!  🙂

Hello Team,

 

What if this does not work, and we still get the following:

I used to be able to Combine many liked PDF's before without an issue. Is there a way to turn this function off? We use Adobe 2020
