Not fully portable

It leaves behind this folder:
%APPDATA%\Foxit Software\RMS

Please make a forum post in the Other Apps called "[Bug] Foxit 5.3.0 Rev 2 leaves files behind" and include more information like your OS, install location and what was done within Foxit to create that directory (opening a file, saving something, etc). I don't recall seeing this in our testing, so this could be tied to a specific function.

stwum commented this on the release page, and I have the same issue.

%APPDATA%\Foxit Software\RMS\FXRMS_Log.txt
(info about the Operating Sytem version)

I run PortableApps on a partition of one of my HDDs.
I just did an uninstall of Foxit and I deleted the %APPDATA%\folders, after that I did a new install using the Portable App Directory, and nothing after that.

I use Windows 7 x64 SP1

Fixed in Rev 3

This is fixed in revision 3. The file and RMS directory are now removed on exit.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
