Question

plug-ins menu does missing in Acrrat DC

I have a couple of Adobe Acrobat's plug-ins working perfectly fine in a few computers with Adobea Acroat DC installed. However, in one of the computers the "plug-ins" menu does not appear in the toolbar.

Under "Help->>Generate System Report" the plug-ins are listed under "Installed Plug-ins".

How do I make sure the "Plug-ins" menu is activated?

Thanks

Ok, next... on Windows, Acrobat Pro comes in both "32-bit" and "64-bit" versions. Check and compare this on all systems. Plug-ins are not interchangeable, they will be either 32-bit or 64-bit.

Solved.

 

the issue had nothing to do with the code. 

it seems that some dependencies were missing on thse computers.

 

I am not sure yet which one. I reinstalled:
Microsoft .net Framework v4.5.1 (C01035B4)
Microsoft InfoPath 2013 for Office 365 2016 v1.0

Java Runtime Smart Installation v1.8

 

something in one of those were affecting the loading of the plug-ins.

 

thanks for all your help.

sorry I make you spend so much time searching for nothing.
