How to disable title bar advertisment in foxit pdf reader 7

Question

I am using foxit pdf reader for a long time and i always disabled the title bar advertisement using this method. But recently I updated the foxit pdf reader to 7.0.6 and after that the advertisement has return and i am unable to disable the advertisement.

"Show advertisement" in general tab is unchecked (File -> Preferences -> General) and stays the same

I have also tried to edit the registry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 7.0\Preferences\General

But the bShowAdvertisement value was already 0.

Any idea how to solve this problem

Have you tried enabling that option, closing foxit completely and reopening it and then disabling it again? — Mokubai, Feb 10 '15 at 22:26
If you have more than one tab open, the advertisements seem to refresh every restart (despite the unticked box/registry setting). Note that there's also `Others\bShowAD`, though that doesn't change anything either. — Mateen Ulhaq, Jul 14 '15 at 05:09
I believe this option has been fixed in later versions, such as the current version 7.2.2. — Brian Duddy, Oct 02 '15 at 00:18

You can disable it via Preferences>General>Application Startup. There is an option to disable advertisement.

Strange - it just worked for me. I'm on Foxit Reader 7.2.0.722. – Ian R. O'Brien Oct 03 '15 at 22:09
Worked for me. I disabled it because of the distraction factor, but is there a way to donate to the dev. team to make up for the loss of income and support them? – MahNas92 Dec 07 '15 at 13:42
