I just upgraded to Catalina and the Acrobat DC icon has disappeared in the document name bar. Not even a empty box for it, just gone. All the other app icons are appearing fine so hopefully means it's just a glitch in DC that can be easily and quickly fixed. I use this HEAVILY to drag and drop into emails, into other documents or find the folder is was saved in, ya know, because we've all closed that project folder accidentally too soon.

I have this very same issues. I rely on this HEAVILY to drag and drop into emails, into other documents and also find the folder it originally came from. Why would anyone remove this? And then only in Acrobat DC? The icon is present in all other Adobe apps I use. Surely this is a programming mistake that can be easily fixed ASAP!

Thank you for the very fast reply.

Reading your link I find this text (see bottom) and I try to follow the instructions, but is not easy to understand how to "Create a FeatureState plist file with a key showTitleBarIcon, and set its value to True.". In my user folder "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/DC" there is not a folder "Preferences". In the root Library there is a folder Preferences, but not a file "com.adobe.acrobat.FeatureState.plist"

Thank you for any help

Known issues

Adobe is trying to fix the following known issues in a future release.
Create PDF

Creating multiple PDF files does not work if users don't Allow once on the OS File permissions prompt. [4286131]

Viewer

The PDF icon in the title bar of Acrobat used to open folder location is now removed in Catalina. [4279798]

Workaround:
Create a FeatureState plist file with a key showTitleBarIcon, and set its value to True.

Location of plist file: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/(Acrobat or Reader)/(version)/Preferences/com.adobe.(Acrobat/Reader).FeatureState.plist
For example, for Acrobat DC, the location is: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/DC/Preferences/com.adobe.acrobat.FeatureState.plist

Note: macOS may display a permission prompt for Acrobat seeking access to some specific folders when you enable this FeatureState key.

Just noticed that the icon is missing after I updated to Catalina. Please return it. I relied on it to quickly upload PDFs to our traffic software system. Removing the icon from title bar adds extra time to my workflow.

In previous versions of Acrobat DC (before macOS Catalina), and most non-Adobe apps, the title bar of an open document contains an icon next to the name of the open document. Dragging this icon allows a user to copy that document to another location (I typically use it to quickly send a copy of the document to someone via email). For some reason, once I upgraded to Catalina, this functionality disappeared, but only for Acrobat. When creating this request, I noticed someone else requested the ability to move and rename a file via the title bar—and was shot down due to lack of interest, apparently—which is also a feature of most other apps in macOS but not of Adobe products. This quick Finder capability via the Title bar is very useful and makes handling files a breeze. If I would have known about these forums before, I certainly would have added my voice to this request as well! I understand that it's a different animal adding functionality that previously wasn't present, but please consider returning previously useful functionality (the icon next to the document name in the title bar) that appears to have been removed for no good reason.
