I have a lot of PDF files for study which I often make some modifications as highlight some words, add bookmarks and stuff. The problem is that sometimes I want to share this PDF file but I don't want any of my modifications with it, I want to share the "original" file as the first time I opened on my PC. Is there any practical way to do it? I don't wan't to keep two files like the original and the edited file stored on my PC. Thanks!

How about using your backups to go back to the file as it was received? If you don't make backups, then you know now why people bang on about it.

Keep the original, remove the modifications, or attach a copy of the original to the PDF file.

But I would need to remove the modifications manually or is there some tool or option that could just restore to the original form instantly?
