[@ZD Soft] There is no legitimate reason for you to use MSEDgeWebview2.exe! Your main executable handles the license activation connectivity DIRECTLY and the Update checks are also done directly from the main executable. The extraneous web communications done via MSEdgeWebview2.exe are NOT essential to the operation of the program and are not what MSEdgeWebView2.exe are designed for! It is designed to embed a web browser rendering form within a program and no part of ZD Screen Marker or ZD Screen Recorder renders any web content. It is currently used solely to perform undocumented, authorised, unannounced https communications for purposes OTHER than main license activation and update checking. The license does not need continual and multiple validations per session and blocking those alleged license re-validations does not block access to licensed features… please explain WHY you are able to formally initially validate the license activation directly via https from the main program but alleged revalidation requires abuse of the MSEdgeWebView2.exe component in an unannounced and covert and agressive manner? Also why have you not addressed your companies theft of FFMPEG.ORG Intellectual Property and why do you build your MSI installer to not ask for elevated rights like properly built MSI installers so it can install into secure locations that require elevated rights to write into. It is bad programming practice to place executables into unprotected folders intended solely for data files and not executables. It is possible to prove your intention by packet sniffing the servers names contacted during these unauthorised covert communications attempts… I may build a sanitised virtual machine solely to investigate these suspicious unauthorised communications and make public my research for the time being regardless of what you claim, your dev choices to steal IP and break copyright laws and install software into an insecure location by default and make unannounced aggressive https web traffic misusing a component designed to embed browser content within an applications UI has made it clear you have no moral qualms about doing illegal and bad things for your own benefit, which in my view would include lying to cover up bad actions.
