I am using ACF 5 PRO, tried everything like

function my_remove_menu_pages() {
       remove_menu_page('tools.php'); 
        remove_menu_page('profile.php');    
	remove_menu_page('acf-options');     
 // I have tried all possible slugs
    }

but cant remove Options Page from menu items which can be created by ACF.
Basically i want to remove the options page for anyone else except admin.
Any ideas?

What about adding it only for admins? Would that solve your problem?

if ( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
	if ( current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
		acf_add_options_page();	// or similar
	}
}

Thats what I had to do, but I wonder why the remove menu options not wokring only with ACF. I am not a pro, but there has to be a way to do it.

Thanks

You could also try to use a higher priority for your action. The documentation says, the options page entry is added with priority 99, so you could try e.g. 100:

add_action( 'admin_menu', 'my_remove_menu_pages', 100 );
