Email Icon Missing from toolbar with new release

Since the update to the newest version earlier this month I am unable to email directly from the toolbar and must once again run through the right panel (which is 3 extra steps) to email a document.  Please update the "fix" what was working before.  Many of us like the efficiency of emailing directly from the toolbar.

 

Here is the link to the fix that previously worked:

Thank you,

    The only work around I can see for this is going back to Adobe Classic View:

    Email Icon will be present in the same area.

    That doesn't work - the video shows all of the steps I don't want to have to make.  The current version now has two buttons on the toolbar that do exactly the same thing and require multiple steps to perform.  If you hold your mouse over each icon they both say 'share file for viewing or commenting and track changes".  If that's what I want to do I would select the SHARE button.  When I want to simply send the file in an email, the Email icon should attach it directly to an email message for sending.  I want that icon back that has been a standard option for YEARS.

This update will be automatically pushed to all existing installations of Acrobat and Reader. If you want, you may also manually trigger the update early by opening the application and going to Help > Check for Updates.
