Todat my Quick Tools (QT) section somehow moved to the left-most section of the toolbar. How can I move it back to the right of File Tools and Page Display Tools sections? I see that I can click&drag the QT section but it does not drop when I try to move it.

Update RESOLVED: looks like the drag+drop is now working today. I have been able to move the quick tools section back to the right-hand side if teh File Tools section using drag+drop.

Had this problem today. If the drag and drop isn't working, close Adobe. Open RegEdit. go to:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\AVGeneral\cToolbarCustomization

Edit the DWORD bQuickToolClusterPosIsLeft

Set value to 0 (from 1). 

Open Adobe. All fixed.

The value updates on closing Acrobat, so you must have it closed to make the change.

Hi @Amal. Thanks for the reply.

I am not using the new acrobat, nor do I want to make this switch now. Also, there is no option to make the switch in my View menu (see image1). I do not want a floating Quick Tools menu, I prefer to keep it locked in the main toolbar across the top, at least for the next two weeks as I have a majore deadline coming up.

 

I just want to move the Quick Tools section back to the right-hand side of the toolbar (see image2)
