===Foxit Enterprise Reader 5.4===
====Turn Off Automatic Updates====
Foxit Enterprise Reader doesn't include the Update Manager (Help → Update) but it does include the auto updater feature (using %PROGRAMFILES%\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader\plugins\Updater.fpi). From Foxit Reader 5.3.0 changelog: "Provides users with three update options, allowing users selecting the most appropriate upgrade method according to their requirements".
(Note the reversion from 'HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.1' back to 'HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.0')
====Display PDF In Browser====
This determines whether or not PDFs open in an embedded Foxit Reader within the browser, or open separately into a full Foxit Reader.
The registry option ...MainFrame\DisplayInBrowser=0 described in Configiuration Scripts - Foxit Reader 4.3 doesn't seem to be able to be used to turn this off.
