Use hand tool to select text and images not working

New Here ,
Aug 11, 2022 Aug 11, 2022

The check box in Preferences > General > Basic Tools the allows the Hand tool to select text & images is not working. It was working for me for months and stopped working within the last day or so. I have reinstalled acrobat, and ensured the box is checked. Still not working. Is there another setting I need to change to make it work?

 

Thanks!

Turns out when I reinstalled, I reinstalled normal acrobat DC instead of Pro DC. After Reinstalling Pro DC, this function works again.
