With the latest Thunderbird Update to 138.0 also a Foxit Reader was automatically installed without additional check 'Do you want to install additionally ...'
As I use Thunderbird on my company computer, the standard Foxit Reader installation was overwritten.
Please do not bundle any additional software with an update and especially not without any check.
Thanks
