Hi All,

We don't see an option  "Open in Classic UI" no more in drop-down; was this removed in AEM 6.3? If Yes, is there any workaround to show that option? Thanks

Correct - AEM Is moving away from Classic UI. Therefore the option was removed the drop-down.

Adobe recommends that you start using AEM Touch UI in 6.3.

It has improved a lot since it was 1st released back in 5.6.

If you really want to keep using it - modify editor.html in the URL to cf#.

Hope this helps....
