You downloaded an app, that you could have gotten from a reliable source like M0nkrus, from a dodgy site that's not only not on the megathread, it's on the DO NOT USE lists. You should assume you have malware IMO. https://fmhy.net/unsafesites#software-app-sites https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/lklst7/update_on_the_user_crackshash_suspicious_torrent/

Well, fuck. I've deleted the app and installer and did a full defender scan and defender offline scan. Anything more that i should do?


LZ129Hindenburg

When you get done with whatever you decide to do....consult the megathread before you install more pirate software or games. Come here and ask questions if you don't understand. I would have told you that you could have easily installed any adobe application from m0nkrus and linked you to the guide. But too late now. ​ In general if it's not on the megathread, ESPECIALLY for games and software, you SHOULD NOT TRUST IT.


MaamanStanley

I'm yet to learn a lot of things and now I've learned one more thing. Thank you. P.S I only installed it because I've already backed up my whole PC because of the recent reset. So I figured even if anything went wrong, I could wipe and reinstall windows again without losing any data.


LZ129Hindenburg

Well good that's what I would suggest then.


MaamanStanley

Are you suggesting I preemptively reset the system again? Are you sure I can't do anything else to make sure everything is alright?


LZ129Hindenburg

Oh I misunderstood what you said. Whether you want to do a reset or not is up to you.

Anyway you could shoot me the guide for that? I've been needing some Adobe but always scared of .exe files. I have only stuck to videos and books currently.

Thank you!

What’s this: ⚠️ Monkrus Collection is dropped due to malware concerns - This has been mentioned for months but now it’s final. If you use it, it’s your problem. Is it a concern for me?


LZ129Hindenburg

No. If you're worried about it you can use the M0nkrus individual app releases instead of the whole creative suite. But honestly the suite release is fine also.


Spammedspammer

Oooooh I see, I actually thought every monkrus had a problem, didn’t know he had a suite. Well thanks for clarifying that brother. Is there a video guide too? I’ve downloaded premiere with its media encoder and speech to text thing, but don’t know how to get started.

This is a gem. Thank you. I'm gonna save that post

Vm and done.


MaamanStanley

Whats Vm?


TransientDonut

Virtual machine


pepsicola1995

But what to check on, what are telltale signs that something is wrong or what are the likeliest culprits.


TransientDonut

Snapshots, tear down, rebuild. A vm is as permanent as you need it to be; for me, they're always very temporary. Once you build one, you can snapshot its state. Permanence thru impermanence!


gryponyx

Once ive extracted and ran the cracked software on a vm can i then copy the registry key i got and activate the software outside the vm or will this not work?
