This issue is not resolved. Those buttons are still there and you cannot remove them.

ACTUAL RESOLUTION.....

"PDF Studio Pro 2020".

Can you please flag this I was hacked

PLEASE allow us to hide that entire right side bar! As others have said, not all of us can open the window up really wide, and those buttons cover up others that we use every day all day.
Just really silly to now allow this.

NOT resolved.

Please allow your users to edit the toolbar as THEY choose.

Thank you Amkh. I could not agree more.

This "reply" shows a complete contempt for the user client base... It is a complete and intentional LIE.

A more honest and far more acceptable reply would be to simply say "**** all of you".

The complaint/feedback/suggestion/"feature request" is to have the ability to REVOVE (that is NOT have it there) the "share" button (whether it be big and blue or smaller and grey) and the rest of the useless icons to the right of it.

To say it again - because adobe is too dense to "notice" - the "share" button and the icons to the right of it - should be removable.

IF (notice it's a BIG "if") someone wants these, they can add it.

Thanks to Adobe to listening and trying to solve, but the root cause of this is not the size of the Big Blue Button. It is the primacy of the icons on the RHS (share, feedback, learn, notifications, profile) over those on the LHS (the functional toolbars, print, zoom etc). Such that when working on a small screen, maybe having a .pdf and another application open simultaneously, the 'everyday', useful icons are obscured by those that many of use never use. Just change it so the LHS icons have priority - Thanks.

Your "fix" does not work here. v2019.012.20034.
Try again.

With the latest update there is an option "Hide Share Button Label". Actually, it transforms to a smaller icons.

Adobe response is a lie. No way that I can find to remove this ginormous honking blue SHARE button. Wastes so much space on the tool bar, and I will NEVER use that service due to confidentiality/intellectual property reasons. Hey Adobe, get the [CENSORED] out of my way!

It is sickening the way Adobe are moving away from real-world users towards some sort of fantasy social media constituency which does not exist. Having yesterday "upgraded" from Acrobat 9 to DC, I find processes which I use all the time take three (non-intuitive) clicks instead of a single obvious one, and an ugly, cumbersome design with "share" options which I would never use in a million years. Very disappointing indeed, but not surprising. People will start migrating away from PDF soon if this continues.

How about this as a solution:
1) Give users the option of not showing the side pane of tool groups at all (in Preferences); and
2) Give users the option of not showing the Share button at all (in Preferences); and
3) Give users the option of creating/customizing our own toolbar(s) with tools from different tool groups to make it quick and easy to work on documents without having to access different groups to access the next tool we want to use.

Updated: Found the hide option... but the gray version of it remains making 3 available tool slots unusable. One is taken by the gray share button, one is blank and one is the "..." for my 2 remaining tools. Like the anonymous poster below, I too am a professional with no reasons to ever share the files I work on and having the tools I need visible/ easily accessible and editable is what I NEED. This is not entirely fixed...

This is a completely INACCURATE response. Someone trying to puff up their stats?

So amukherj comes in after all the responses, ignores them, and says it's "resolved." What effin' joke.

If I shared my company's client's artwork I'd be FIRED. For crying out loud, this is a professional printing company. We're not here to share client's art. STOP trying to make Acrobat be social media. It has no place in my workflow, and the damned button has pre-empted my own customization. OUTRAGEOUS, Adobe. Quit it.

May be add an option to disable/remove it with Customization Wizard tool, or show it in the File... menu only.

Agreed. Do something radical: put the user in control. Adobe's agenda is not my agenda. Provide feedback and Learn Acrobat should not be the brightest bulb on the string. Good grief. Does Adobe think this isn't our first rodeo?

Now that we can hide the big blue "share" button it would be nice to be able to also COMPLETELY hide the "provide feedback", "learn Acrobat Pro DC", and "profile and settings" icons. All these should be on the right task pane.

Thank-you
