We’ve covered that Foxit Reader installs Foxit Cloud and Cloud Reading plugin and how to remove them (read in more detail what is Foxit Cloud Reading Service). Whether all these Foxit Plug-ins are necessary? May be not?. Should they just maintain things running smoothly for the user (you need updates for that, we get it, but we need to update only when it is convenient), the natural inertia would keep them using the software forever.You could be surprised by the number of plugins Foxit Reader loads when you open it. In fact, the plain refusal of developers to attend to user basic needs (not to have this hassle, for example) is what starts the search for alternative applications. Softwares that do not comply with that are subject to abandonment. People want and have the right to easily manage what software is unnecessarily spending resources and devouring their 3G/4G data limits.

Though their acceptance may exempt Adobe and other developers from any legal claims, they just worsen user irritation upon mention. That is why software agreements will never have any value to users.

For paid software it's even more dull, since the 'contract' is presented AFTER purchase. There is no negotiation of clauses or any sort of customization for anything the user does not agree with.

In regard to accepting license agreements, noone even reads them, home users or system administrators. Done all that's been listed and will pull the plug on installing/running Adobe Reader DC in my family's computers and those of my company upon software maintenance.Īdobe does not seem to understand their reader is already one of the heaviest on resources, and annoying users with cumbersome procedures (it is, for regular users) will just enforce the stampede towards competitors. Hey guys, thank you all for the directions.
