I do not see the options for tabbed interface after installing update 2015.006.30119. Is my install corrupt?

[MrGanoosh]

I have Windows 7 Enterprise x64 on my work computer with Adobe Acrobat Standard DC (Classic). I just had our IT department install the update 2015.006.30119 to be able to make use of the advertised features (tabbed interface). It shows that the current version installed is 2015.006.30119 in the "about" popup, and in programs and features in the control panel, but the general preferences tab shows no options about the new tabbed interface options. I have inserted pictures of both the "about" view showing the version number and the general preferences tab. While I'm not overly concerned about a feature I've never had before, it would be handy in some situates to try and it concerns me that the installation is corrupt if the new features supposedly added by this version are not actually there. I have also tried re-applying the update and running the repair installation utility. Any help would be appreciated.

The classic (purchased) thread does not have new features added, except every year or two for a paid upgrade. Only the subscription version has tabs.

They why does the release notes page for 15.006.30119 say "this release provides new features for end users described in the New features summary." Here: 15.006.30119 Planned Update, January 12, 2016 — Acrobat and Adobe Reader Release Notes?

I see now, that web page above also has a link to the classic vs continuous track information that agrees with what you've said. Basically, on the release notes page it says (and I'm paraphrasing) "this release provides these new features" and at the same time "you can't have any of the new features we release for the software you paid for". As the person who did not choose which license I have on my work computer, I find this very misleading. I guess our IT guys should have known we don't get the updated features, being they purchased the software. They were confused when I asked about it, which is why I came here. That, and the fact that even though this is expensive software, it comes with no email, chat, or phone support to find answers. This forum is hard to get into (redirect loop issues that I had to search out an answer for elsewhere), and the only clear answer about it on the release notes page was "this release provides new features..." which it does NOT. I think it would make sense to just remove that line item on the "classic" release notes page as it is simply not true.

I remember finding that and being surprised myself.
