Hello,
these lines for PDF-Xchange are outdated:

Detect1=HKCU\Software\Tracker Software\PDFViewer (this program doesn't exist any more)
FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\Tracker Software\LiveUpdate\Updates|*
FileKey3=%ProgramData%\Tracker Software\TrackerUpdate|TrackerUpdate.exe.del
FileKey4=%ProgramData%\Tracker Software\TrackerUpdate\Download|*

Instead, the download folder for updates now is
%ProgramData%\PDF-XChange\Updater\InstallPackages

I don't know why this file should be deleted (size only 624kB):

FileKey2=%ProgramData%\Tracker Software\PDFXShellExt\Ifilter\Temp|*.tmp

These lines are unwanted:

RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Tracker Software\PDFViewer\Documents\LastOpened (can be fine-grained managed in app settings)
RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Tracker Software\PDFViewer\Documents\LatestView\Bars (resets the UI configuration!)
RegKey3=HKCU\Software\Tracker Software\PDFViewer\Documents\LatestView\Panes (resets the UI configuration!)

So IMO this is enough:

[PDF-XChange ]
LangSecRef=3021
Detect1=HKCU\Software\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor
FileKey1=%ProgramData%\PDF-XChange\Updater\InstallPackages|
|RECURSE
