After upgrading from the previous build to b.1414 the reader would crash every time I tried to open certain pdfs. I then noticed these were interactive pdfs (they had form fields to enter details) - which led me to this solution.

The javascript addon from the previous version was the cause.

Uninstalling the reader does not remove the additional libraries either - they had to be manually updated or deleted for the reader to work.

I hope this benefits anyone else who has this problem, and perhaps Foxit can make the reader a bit more graceful when dealing with their own addon dlls.

Yes, you are right. the JS addon is the cause. Please update it in time. Thank you.
