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.
Is 4download a good source ? I haven't downloaded a cracked software in ages but "diakov repack" pop-up in my mind whenever l need a very good source.

Every time I find scums like this around FB, like selling famous animes like Dragon Ball or Naruto GDrives 🤡 I call them out, I have never get a response... I don't know if they block me or Facebook does it.
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.
It can be argued that the libreoffice dude is providing a service. If you were deeply invested in the windows ecosystem, with most of your apps coming from the store and you also have like 20 windows computers, buying it for $10 is totally worth it.
1 click install and auto updates being the advantage. Not to mention a centralized way to make sure all your machines are running the same version.
It's not like it's a subscription or per machine license.
The Windows Store limits the number of machines that you can install paid software on to 10. If you are managing a lot of computers you'd be better off with some actual management software or at least a package manager like Chocolatey. Then you can push software to your machines, run updates, or uninstall stuff whenever you like.
Literally every use case you just said can be automated using winget, for free.
Windows store apps don't even update half the time if you don't open the store and manually update it yourself
'people' smh
It's FOSS, what did you expect?
Those repackages of libreoffice packages are actually official.
https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-from-microsoft-and-mac-app-stores/
These versions are free software (as in open source) but there's a small charge to cover the effort of putting software in the app stores, and to help develop the software (and build our communities).
They are not. I do not refer to the package called "LibreOffice". If you search for "office" on the Windows Store, you'll see a bunch of LibreOffice clones that are not branded as such and are not free of charge or contain advertisements.
Woah, only USD 12 for a GENUINE fake cracked copy someone first downloaded from a torrent?
I mean, if you are a designer that needs it but doesn't know how to download and crack stuff, 12$ might be worth that time.
It does say "No Virus" in big letters, so what could go wrong?
I have no idea how the law works in India, but I wonder if a small business could save money by just pointing Adobe at these people when they eventually get a lawsuit threat?
This is nepal actually and everyone uses pirated software, government offices included. Nobody gives a shit here.
