should I delete Adobe Reader before I download Foxit ?

Answer 1

Yes, and you need to not only delete from Add/Remove, but also go to start, run, type in: c://program files, click on browse, click on program files and look for Adobe and delete. If it says "being used", reboot and go back and then delete. Should delete this time.

Now go to start, search and type in: Adobe, let your pc search for all related files for Adobe, and delete from top to the bottom. If some refuse to delete, reboot and go back and delete them.

If you have have what is known as a "write protected file", files that will not delete, because they are encrypted then you need to download the this free software that will delete any write protected file: http://www.downloadspin.com/System-Utilities/File-and-Disk-Management/Kevin-Solway/Delete-Doctor_2320.htm

Files is deletedr. 2.1 download and is free.

Download also http://www.ccleaner.com Will need to clean temp, files and also your registry. This is a very safe software I use myself. Adobe is like Nortons, there are at least 200 to 300 registry keys associated with Adobe and I don't wish for you to go into the registry and try to remove them. They will not cause you conflict like Nortons. So just clean up what you can with the Crap Cleaner, using the registry cleaner.
