Since upgrading, the pdf toolbar will not go away, even when it is clearly NOT selected in preferences. Anyone else have this problem? Any solutions?

Problem with persistent pdf toolbar in Word - deejemon
Office's Add-ins manager doesn't really work properly, although really you should be able to just close that toolbar and Office should remember that it was not open, even if it's not disabled per-se. To correctly disable add-ins, you need to disable them on the file system.Go to:
Microsoft Office 2004 (or X) > Office > Startup
There is a folder inside "Startup" for each application (Word, Excel and PowerPoint). Remove the Acrobat add-ins that are in each Startup folder.
To be completely thorough, you can also remove the PDFMakerLib file from the root of the Office folder.

Many thanks for the advice deejemon. The same problem occurred in version 11.2.4 but your recommendations to remove the start-up files worked.Wednesday, June 14 2006 @ 12:39 AM PDT
