Hi,

It drives me crazy that I can't hide this menu, Tried the F8 or F9 option didn't do anything and I tried 'Remember state of Tools Pane' option which also didn't work, Is there a way to hide this menu?

Perfect - thank you.  This worked so well.  I will not be losing sleep at night about missing out on new Adobe Reader features!

F8 and F9 both do something:

  • F8 hides the tools on top.
  • F9 hide the menu bar

 

Shift + F4 will collapse/expand the right-hand tools.

 

See View menu > Show/Hide for other shortcuts.

Hi, maybe it works on the older version, not on the version I have, F8 + F9 Don't do anything for me and the Shift + F4 doesn't exists (see screenshot below)
Is there anything else I can do?

Try this: Disable new Acrobat Reader

This still didn't work for me. I disabled it and the menu bars are still showing on the top and the right. I have tried all of the hide toolbar options and nothing is working. I have a Macbook. Has anyone figured this out yet?
