Is this FoxIt? What the hell, FoxIt used to be cool.

Anyway, if all you need is a .pdf reader and don’t need any editing or form fill BS, just uninstall all your .pdf readers because they’re totally redundant these days. Firefox and all other browsers can natively read .pdf’s. If you need to mess with the content of a .pdf, Inkscape (open source) does a competent job of taking them apart and letting you edit them nowadays.

I’m of the opinion that bloated memory hog .pdf applications full of subscriptions and ads and other bullshit can just die in a fire. I haven’t actually needed one for years.
