Could someone know how to make the first Adobe instance can just display one single document. Do not allow any other Adobe instance to attach to it ?  

For example if I open one adobe document it open one instance of Adobe.

But if I just double click on another Adobe file, it create just another tab in the first open adobe instance. I want it create another instance of Adobe. Use comman line /n can control the second open instance to open as a seperate instance, but can the first adobe instance to disallow the attachment for any other Adobe instance. Any Adobe call back function or command line could achive the goal for the first instsnce of Adobe ? 

Thanks.

Hi MicahelW,

 

Thanks for reaching out, As described above, you want to open PDf files in the new window, correct?

 

Please try the following preference settings and see if that works for you

 

Go to Edit (Windows), Adobe Acrobat /reader DC (Mac) > Preferences > General > Uncheck , open documents as new tabs in the same window > Click OK >  Restart the application.

 

 

 

Let us know how it goes

 

Regards

Amal
