moved overly complex installer to the bottom
You will need to download the [http://downloads.foxitsoftware.com/foxitreader/FoxitReader23.msi msi] version of Foxit Reader in order for this to work. I would also recommend setting a different user in the permissions.
==Installer==These installers assume that Windows is localised in English. For Windows localised for other languages need to make changes accordingly.
<source lang="xml"><package idInstaller="foxit-reader" name="Foxit Reader" revision="2.3" reboot="false" priority="0"> <check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal" path="%PROGRAMFILES%\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader\Foxit Reader.exe" value="2.3.2008.2923"/> <install cmd='msiexec /i %SOFTWARE%\foxit\FoxitReader23.msi /passive /norestart'> <exit code="0" /> </install> <install cmd='cmd /c mkdir "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <install cmd='cmd /c copy "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader\Foxit Reader.lnk" "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <install cmd='cmd /c rmdir /q /s "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <install cmd='cmd /c cacls "%ProgramFiles%\\Foxit Software" /T /E /G "Everyone":F ' /> <exit code="1332" /> <install cmd='cmd /c cacls "%AllUsersProfile%\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Foxit Reader" /T /E /G "Everyone":F ' /> <exit code="1332" /> <remove cmd='msiexec /x {376DA9DC-71B3-4AB7-A80C-8ED02A736172} /passive /norestart' /> <remove cmd='cmd /c rmdir /q /s "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <upgrade cmd='cmd /c rmdir /q /s "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <upgrade cmd='msiexec /i %SOFTWARE%\foxit\FoxitReader23.msi /passive /norestart'> <exit code="0" /> </upgrade> <upgrade cmd='cmd /c mkdir "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <upgrade cmd='cmd /c copy "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader\Foxit Reader.lnk" "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <upgrade cmd='cmd /c rmdir /q /s "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Foxit Reader"' /> <upgrade cmd='cmd /c cacls "%ProgramFiles%\\Foxit Software" /T /E /G "Everyone":F ' /> <exit code="1332" /> <upgrade cmd='cmd /c cacls "%AllUsersProfile%\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Foxit Reader" /T /E /G "Everyone":F ' /> <exit code="1332" />
</package></source>  ==Alternative install== This above method will work, but you will run into problems when trying this with a German version of Windows, as the "Start menu" is called "Startmenü". You may want to correct the path in that case. Of course, this will also work with any other version of Windows. This install will set Foxit Reader as default PDF reader. === Foxit Reader 3.0 (English) ===
<source lang="xml">
Foxit Reader automatically makes itself the default PDF reader, hence the -register command-line switch isn't used here.
=== Foxit Reader 2.3 ===
<source lang="xml">
</source>
====Command-line Switches====
-register - make Foxit Reader the default PDF reader
