    They probably yoinked it from 4download (for free) and are trying to resell it. A disgrace for these seas😤

      They claim no virus, so they must have cracked it themselves /s

      They often sell an auto-install USB stick you just have to plug into your PC. So at least there is some effort put into it that still makes it “worth paying for”. And if you need to install it on multiple devices, it can save a lot of time if you don’t know how to do it yourself.

        Fair tbh. Didn’t know about this until know. But I would be VERY sus about a random USB rather than the source. But as you said, some less knowledged peeps could find it rather useful

    This is like the people who repackage and rebrand LibreOffice and then resell it for $10 on the Windows Store to gullible users.

    And the worst part about that is that it doesn’t even break the law.

      I mean, if you are a designer that needs it but doesn’t know how to download and crack stuff, 12$ might be worth that time.

        It does say “No Virus” in big letters, so what could go wrong?
