Combine PDF feature missing from right click option Acrobat Pro 9/Windows 7

[chesty21]

I combine PDF's all day long and need this feature. I had it on my old computer and since moving over to the new computer I do not have the option to combine PDF's when right clicking on PDF documents. I have searched the forum and found other fixes, however none have worked, I have uninstalled and re-installed three times as well and no luck. Does anyone have any other ideas for fixes for this. I need this feature.....

No suggestions?

Make sure you have updated to at least version 9.2. Earlier versions are not compatible with Windows 7.

I checked and I am updated to version 9.4.1. so I'm good there.

Found this it worked for me :

http://acrobatusers.com/forum/pdf-creation/right-click-option-combine-supported-files-missing a known issue caused by the context menu handler not being registered (tends to result from patches and installs when Windows UAC is active).

It's

From the Start menu, choose 'All Programs' > 'Accessories, and *right-click* on 'Command Prompt'Select 'Run as Administrator' and approve the UAC window (if one is displayed)

If you have 64-bit Windows, in the command window type the following and press Enter, including the quotes:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu64.dll"

On 32-bit Windows, type this instead:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu.dll"

You should see a message saying it was successful. Close the command prompt window, and your context menus should be back up and running. .

Very vital function that I had given up on. Your recommendation worked perfectly....

Thanks

Hi,

One of my user-facing the same issue. She is having the latest version installed of acrobat dc pro. I tried to use the above command but no luck. Any other suggestion.

Thanks in advance.

I know this thread is old but, if you never figured this out, try this line instead:  

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu64.dll"

That came back as "succeeded", but I am STILL not able to right click and combine PDFs!
