Scroll bars have changed

New Here ,
Oct 21, 2025 Oct 21, 2025

I'm using Win11.

 

I've noticed that the Adobe Acrobat scroll bars have recently changed (not for the better).  There are no longer any "arrows" bracketing the scroll lane on the right edge of the window and the scroll bar is hidden unless one presses an up or down arrow on the keyboard.  Dissappearing scroll bars are nonsense.  They should always be there.  We have 4K screens now, screen real estate is no longer a problem!  Please fix this!  Classic features are classic for a reason... BECASUE THEY WORK!

@jh1138 sounds like you have 'new Acrobat' interface on... just turn that off, View - Disable new Acrobat. Acrobat will restart automatically, and you should have the classic look again

I am having the same missing scroll bar issue and already had Disable New Acrobat chosen. Any other ideas you can think of? Thanks 

The 'Always Show Scroll Bars' option that was apparently available under Preferences last Feb 2024 (according to another forum post) is also gone:
