Dear User,

 

We are delighted to inform you that we have extended support for opening multiple PDF files in separate windows (SDI - Single Document Interface Mode) in the latest updates of Acrobat.

 

To use this preference, simply go to Preferences > General > Open documents as new tabs in the same window and disable this. Relaunch Acrobat and open the documents, they will open in individual window instances (reference image attached for navigation to the preference)

 

We look forward to receiving your feedback and fostering seamless integration.

 

Thanks,

Bhawna.

it's exactly where I said it was.

"Go to View>Disable new acrobat>then the option reappears in Preferences>General."

Yes, it will definitely be helpful to many people. Thank you for posting the screenshot. I am concerned that Adobe hasn't addressed this problem in the  current version yet.
