I use Linux too on a secondary computer, and I do find amazing the amount of incredible open-source / free apps you can find. I have started using LibreOffice instead of (pirated) microsoft office because I honestly think it’s just better.

But yeah, unfortunately, I haven’t been able find a lot of free and open-source programs that can replace what this one does. And I just don’t like adobe.

Had never heard of QEMU, would you recommend it over the typical ones like Oracle’s? I have also heard of VMWare but honestly I have never used it. I really don’t know which one to try

I’m aware of that, I don’t feel like installing it honestly. I might look for other downloads later. I suspect it’s just the crack because it detected the same from two different downloads on reputable websites on this community.

Honestly I think i should start using vm’s to run pirated software, not games, I have never haved problems with those since I’m already pretty experienced when it comes to that, but software has always felt more awkward to install. A VM could help with these situations where I’m not really sure if it’s just the crack or actually malware.

I am guessing it’s probably just the crack, and the fact that it detected the same from 2 different download on websites with good reputation on this community makes me think it’s that.

And yes I did put it on virustotal. The link is on the post. As I said, it detected the same, but still 32 / 62 (or something) went off, I don’t really feel like installing it, honestly. I might look into it later

Yeah you’re right. I can see and I respect people’s reasons for not wanting to use windows / Microsoft products.

I just wanted to point out this as I think many people still consider edge as a bad browser. At least in my experience it works really well and I personally like the style it has and overall the “windows 11 aesthetic” Microsoft is choosing for their products.

Idk, I really like Edge. It just has bad reputation due to Internet Explorer… It is actually very good imo.

My problem with Aliexpress is that I always see people saying that you shouldn’t buy tech in Aliexpress as there are a lot of scams like for example. I recently saw a post saying they have bought some solar panels which said they were 300w but they were actually 30w. And for some reason Aliexpress wouldn’t let them refund.
