I have version 10.1.4.37651 installed and tried to upgrade, but choclatey did not create any log (using chocolatey gui) and it fails everytime with not being able to remove the previous version.

Per a recent message sent to maintainers via the community repo website:

v12.0.0.12394, when downloaded from 'https://cdn06.foxitsoftware.com/product/reader/desktop/win/12.0.0/FoxitPDFReader120L10NSetup_Prom.exe' has a hash of CE7EA8FEB3E416EAA8D8B866AF902233E0A8F23A83D90938E24E406476C420CD, which is different from the advertised 17bf8d1603b458736d8ca9ad68294afb8511269a23be871dbce1e6fe43ee0fba.

Need to look into what (if anything else) has changed and update the package accordingly.

Per a recent Disqus comment:

At this moment the package download generates a crc error and installation is impossible.

This might also be a good opportunity to enhance the update script with support for forced updates and ETag checking, since this is not the first time Foxit has done this...

Download speeds thru choco are abysmal for me.
choco download at 50KB/sec, direct downloads at 100MB/sec
Looks like the URL for choco is:
https://www.foxit.com/downloads/latest.html?product=Foxit-Reader&platform=Windows&package_type=exe&language=German&version=11.1.0.52543
But website which is fast for me is: https://www.foxit.com/downloads/latest.html?product=Foxit-Reader&platform=Windows&version=&package_type=&language=English&distID=

Is there something that can be done to change the URL used, or figure out why foxit is throttling choco? It seems deliberate, but maybe I'm missing something.
