I have Acrobat X, updated through today. When working in windows explorer I used to be able to select multiple documents and right click them to get an option to:
"Combine Supported Files in Acrobat". That option has gone missing! Any ideas?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 10.0, Windows

It's a known issue caused by the context menu handler not being registered (tends to result from patches and installs when Windows UAC is active).


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.

Thanks for the tip. This worked perfectly. Even though you gave specific instructions, I feel smart for just being able to follow them. lol
