I installed Acrobat Reader on a Windows 11 machine and am getting a view in which all tools are spread across the screen at different locations as shown in the first image below.

Also, some tools are floating around. which I want to avoid.  I want to change the view back to old one I am used to as in second image below. How to get the view on the second imave on a Windows 11 machine.

Hi @sarvendranath34232001zm6e,

 

Thanks for writing to us. We acknowledge that we are enabling New Acrobat UI for users, however we hope that as you get familiar with the new interface, you can be more productive & get more out of Acrobat.

 

In case you still want to switch to the older view, you have the option to switch back to the old UI from the “Menu” on the top left corner on windows, and "View" Menu on Mac. Use option 'Disable New Acrobat' and Acrobat will switch to its classic view.

 

Regards,

...

Please tell us the option to switch to classic view will not go away.  
The new version appears horrendous and makes me use MORE clicks than less to accomplish the same simple tasks. 

This newer version seems like its still in development because there are items that should still be labeled and menus that should not be on a drop down and should just be on the top bar for easier access.   
I hope to keep the old way forever.
