    First installs Ashampoo app for advertising. Other functions of the Ashampoo app are not apparent. So I aborted the installation. What is the use of a local translation if the additionally installed app may transmit information of any kind?!

    [@tagr] The provided installer is nothing of the sort, it’s just a custom adware downloader that fails with an error message if it cannot download the true installer, you also don’t normally get access to all the choices in the true installer. Obviously the file server ashampoo are using for this giveaway has failed in some way and no ones told them.

    gaah this downloader is to bootstrap download the ashampoo app… they seem to want to be turning themselves into a steam like controlled environment for their programs the ashampoo app itself takes up 303MBytes on the chosen drive before it downloads any actual programs… they also install a service that runs all the time wasting processing slots and time and memory and it requires internet access so is a privacy risk when using ashampoo applications. My vote is to uninstall ashampoo app and pass on this giveaway, it was bad enough with the spamming after participating in a giveaway, this is beyond acceptable for them to effectively install what may well be spyware as well as adware on our systems. The First communication done before you agree to anything by the downloader is an access to a analytics server

    TCP 192.168.1.83 52.59.150.170 50151 443 anon-analytics.data.ashampoo.com https 17 8,245 Bytes 9,159 Bytes 7.8 KB/sec

    I tried to enter an email address but the button to submit it remained inactive so it looks like we are also being used as beta testers for the ashampoo app too!

    Flawless installation for me. Free software. Installation takes quite some time. Please be patient.
