IE11 on 2012r2 crashes when viewing PDFs in browser

Question

Hi
I'm trying to deploy Foxit Reader Enterprise 6.1.2.1224 on our terminal services running 2012 R2 with IE11, but every time I try to view a PDF in the browser it just crashed with an access violation c0000005 in Foxitreaderbrowserax.dll (2.2.3.1216). I've also
checked each setting in Foxit to see if that made any difference. I get to see the ATL 3.0 FoxItCtl message in the browser just before it crashes.
Also I found the logs from event viewer regarding Foxit PDF Reader.

Do anyone have a clue to how to fix this?
Thanks in Advance.

Found the solution!
You Just need to untick "enable protected mode" checkbox in IE settings, security tab.
There is a registry you can edit: 
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\3]
"2500"=dword:00000003
3 = turn off. 0 = turn on.
If you don't want to be bugged by pop-up window that says something like "you computer is at risk, turn the mode on", there's a registry for that too:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"NoProtectedModeBanner"=dword:00000001
1 = turn of banner. 0 = turn on banner 
If it helps, vote my reply :)
Hi,<o:p></o:p>
What i can to do if in the register haven´t this [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\Zones\3]
"2500"=dword:00000003 
and 
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"NoProtectedModeBanner"=dword:00000001<o:p></o:p>
When I disabled all IE policy get FoxitReader
Control running task. After run control PDF open fine. Then I enable policy´s again and make gpupdate. Log off - log on computer and try open PDF with IE 11, works. How explain this?
