indeed they are worth paying, but how many can handle them and will pay? 10? 50? i barely count more than 30 regular users in both forums combined...

It’s nice to be informed, thanks for the share. We’ll all be keeping an ear to the ground. Hope it turns out otherwise, but such is life.

Very sad indeed.. At least he could keep the static and configuration tools (SysHardener for example) pushing an update whenever there is free time. Dynamic tools such as OSArmor are very difficult to maintain as freeware considering the fast development pace of Windows 10.
This is the reason I always donate to freeware I use if donation option is available.

An update on the matter , Andreas posted in the Wilders Security forum addressing some users' issues with OSA and announced that a new version of OSA is in the making.
He said that he is in between multiple projects these days.

And if you don't have Enterprise, or don't know much about fishing, or how to cook fish, there's @Andy Ful's restaurant in the meanwhile!
Though to some extent you have to find your way around in H_C as well, but at minimum ConfigureDefender is a doddle.

According to Google, 'a very easy task'
Well, naturally, one cannot take these things for granted but sometimes the truth stings a bit. Kindly, a means to donate is provided at "the other forum," something I'd looked for previously but not well enough it seems. Good software is *always* worth paying for...
unless the dev is a jerk
Here's the "donate" link--thank you, Azure.
Moderators: hopefully the donate link is permitted.

Yeah, make it cheap and many people will be willing to pay. I know I do. The price of Windows softwares is just ridiculous. Look at Android. Look at Comodo (4.99/year) - their pricing model, i mean.
You can almost get pirated licenses/"safe" cracks (if you know where to look) for almost every softs; still vendors keep overpricing...

Overpricing, not so sure about that. They have to pay employees and make some money. You can buy virtually any anti-virus, anti-malware, hips, firewall, anti-exploit, etc for unde $75.00 a year. Thats like 10 coffee's at Starbucks, 1 night out for supper. $75.00 a year is nothing, most people can blow that much in a night, boozing, restaurant , a movie whatever. Unless your a milennial who would rather spend money on getting food delivered or a Uber then its chump change.
i dont specified just anti-viruses, but those 200+$ software like MS office, Photoshop, VMware, etc...
Hi is this software still being developed with exe radar? Thks

He meant cracked version of paid applications that are not malicious and safe to use. There are tons of those out there specially in torrent sites.

I've used it before without issue & plan to install it on my others half's shiny new laptop I just setup - I think on basic setup I should be OK as when I've used program that tighten things up before & she can't use her laptop for 30 seconds I quickly become the devil himself (although that's my normal role anyway) I have considered adding a VPN but to scared too
I feel those who use cracked (stolen) software deserve to work for nothing & should never complain when their car is stolen.

I pay literally $5 (USD) a MONTH for access to the whole office suite + 1TB OneDrive online storage, which literally has the option of right clicking your files or entire folders and make them "on demand", meaning it will free gigs of space (80GB in my case) and still leave your files right there to be downloaded individually upon needed (just a double click on the file and it's downloaded and opened). I find this an amazing, cheap, affordable deal.
I also paid $10 (USD) for my KIS2020 license and pennies for my ESET Mobile Security license. I don't think prices are overpriced if you know where to look.Of course if you go directly to the official website you will be ripped off. But usually sites like NewEgg hold good deals. It's just a matter of being patient and not buying on the urgent need.

I've been tempted to use cracked/pirated software but always had visions of something nasty setting up housekeeping on my machine. So, I do something similar. If I really think I need a piece of software, I cruise the many giveaway sites looking for it. Often, I find something similar, play with it for a while, and discover I didn't need it after all.
@Robbie MS Office paid monthly is a scam, it is a software, not a service.
You dont need constant updates for it to be effective or do its job, Iike an AV does.
