Thanks for that, Lisa_lee.
But, can you at least explain why no one from the Foxit developer's group will respond to any of the posts here?
Surely, they must be looking at them from time to time. Have they been ordered not to respond?
I fear that Foxit is going down the same path as Piriform after they changed the way Ccleaner looked.
They just completely ignored every upset user, and pressed on to do whatever they wanted, forgetting that software is often a collaberation between creators and users.
Will Foxit do the same thing?

I started using FoxIT reader six years ago as a replacement for other PDF readers which were littered with busy interfaces which robbed me of productivity. I recent tried (not by choice) to use the ribbon interface in FoxIT Reader which ended up slowing me down greatly and causing a lot of frustration. After 30 minutes of that, it was time to rip 'n replace- back to the earlier version. Lost some more time in that process, but the previous version with classic toolbar is easier to just USE.

Thanks for the great product, and thanks for listening.

Had to set up a new account just to post this.
All of my posts under the old account are automatically "Unapproved" instantly, showing my user name was blocked.
Nice going Foxit.

Dear Foxit,
First, I love your product - way better than most pdf readers.
However, I made this account solely to agree with frustrations with removing the classic toolbar. I can't look at my pdf while saving it or printing it - a big inconvenience! Please bring back the classic toolbar and do away with this failed innovation.

I suppose at least I should be thankful that the new version of Foxit Reader for Linux (1.1.0.0225, released on 2016-03-04) is still not yet littered/destroyed/ruined by the unsightly RIBBON. Thanks, Foxit!

Foxit Reader just auto-updated on me and I too have suddenly found myself without the Classic toolbar. It's intolerable. I'm downgrading, switching off updates, and I'll be moving to another reader if the Classic toolbar isn't reinstated. I hate ribbons, always have, from the moment that MS Office foisted them on us. Please Foxit, put back the Classic toolbar! I've supported you for years, but you're pushing me out. Foxit used to be the lean, fast reader of choice, but it's slowly but surely going the way of the Reader-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named, and that is so disappointing.

Foxit persons: Please continue to support the old toolbar. I've just burned an hour of precious time uninstalling 7.3.4 and reverting to version 7.2.0 which I just happen to still have in my downloads directory. NO ONE likes the Microsoft ribbon! People use it because they have to. No one WANTS to use the ribbon user interface!
Foxit with the old toolbar is the most productive product available. That is why we use it.
Please.
Please.
Please.

Foxit Reader was a faster and useful option for many people until now. Beside that, Foxit Reader was respectful for users choises of it. Its too strange that Foxit insists on Ribbon interface. It is not suitable for Foxit. We want classic interface option back. Do not force people to using other alternative pdf readers. Thanks...

I have disabled auto update but I have a notification for an update to 7.3.4.0311. Can anyone please tell me if the classic toobar has been restored in this new version. I don't want to go through the rigmarole of installing it to find out then having to revert to 7.2.8.1124. if it hasn't.

Come on Foxit, it's time to start listening to your users! 104 posts x 100 for each that didn't post adds up to a **lot** of disgruntled users. Post the minutes of the 5994 team - we want to know what they think!! DUMP THE RIBBON !! DUMP THE RIBBON !! DUMP THE RIBBON !! DUMP THE RIBBON !! DUMP THE RIBBON !!

10-4 bud, I just tried to post almost the same thing, but they blocked me for - well, I'm not sure - why aren't they blocking everyone? Why me? Poor me ...
