HumbleBundle has some "PC software", as in non-games software, bundle.
The tiers are:
1$ for:
>Smart Defrag PRO 1-Year License
>Revo Uninstaller Version 3 License, 1 PC
>EaseUS ToDo BackUp Home Version 10 License
$7.50 for:
>Advanced SystemCare PRO 1-Year License
>Driver Booster PRO 1-Year License
>Speedify VPN 1-Year License, 5 Devices
$15 for:
>Obit Malware Fighter PRO 1-Year License
>Connectify Hotspot MAX 1 Hotspot, Unlimited Users
>Auslogics File Recovery 1-Year License, 3 PCs
>WinZip®21 Standard Edition Version 21 Standard License, 3 PCs
Outside of the bundle, these products have a combined cost of $450, although I am very skeptical they are worth even a tenth of that.
Have any of you used them? Which ones are good, which ones can you recommend?
Is it even fucking worth it at all?
>1 year vpn sub for $7.50
>dosent works on linux
p-probably a botnet, r-right guys?
i used Speedify awhile back. My understanding is that it isn't a traditional VPN in terms of operation. It worked just fine for me though (i used it to get past region locks on bbc and hulu etc).
Anyways, $7.50 alone makes that worth it. I was paying about that per month for it
>Smart Defrag PRO 1-Year License
Why would a defrag software need a yearly license? Get an SSD. If you need to defrag, use the one that came with windows.
>Revo Uninstaller Version 3 License, 1 PC
Convenient but not really necessary. Just don't install crappy software.
>EaseUS ToDo BackUp Home Version 10 License
Can be useful but there are free alternatives available.
>Advanced SystemCare PRO 1-Year License
You don't need this either. Just don't install crappy software on your PC and maintain it properly.
>Driver Booster PRO 1-Year License
Just download your drivers from the manufacturer's website.
>Speedify VPN 1-Year License, 5 Devices
I don't use a VPN so I can't comment on this one.
>Obit Malware Fighter PRO 1-Year License
There are free alternatives like MalwareBytes. Don't click on ads, use an adblocker.
>Connectify Hotspot MAX 1 Hotspot, Unlimited Users
Can't find a reason to install this.
>Auslogics File Recovery 1-Year License, 3 PCs
Use Recuva (free). Backup your files.
>WinZip®21 Standard Edition Version 21 Standard License, 3 PCs
7-Zip is free. Also, windows has built-in support for zip files.

>renting software
nah
>most of these programs are bonzi buddy tier shit or complete placebos
>>60093733
>pay $15 for winzip and a bunch of trials
biggest blunder humble bundle has ever made
>>60093733
>buying winzip
>>60093733
Looks like a bunch of shit. VPN is the only thing potentially useful.
>>60093733
>paying for software
>>60093733
That's all garbage. Don't install useless shit on your PC in the first place, goymer.
>>60093960
Support your local programmers.
>>60093801
They don't have OpenVPN support?
>>60093857
My uni blocks all incoming torrent data, with a VPN I believe they can't see what data is incoming, would speedify help with this or would it not work for this? Or am i just wrong all together?
>>60093998
no its a "new kind of vpn"

>>60093733
literally all garbage
>>60093733
Stop shilling, retard. We had this thread. It's all shitware. Advanced system care is actually malware. It's not worth getting at all, unless you want to re-sell it to an illiterate idiot for twice the price.
>>60094133
>not even Wireguard
What's the purpose, then?
>>60093733
This bundle made me laugh. That people would think they need this. It's ultimately software that tricks normies into thinking they actually need this.
>>60093733
WHERES THE GAMES FAGGOTS
>>60094133
So a data harvesting botnet then. No legitimate company only offers a closed source client and gives a year of their product away in some $7.50 bundle.
>>60094477
yah most likely
>>60093733
I like humble bundle but those software packs are trash
I hope they aren't dying
>>60093733
I used to enjoy Revo Uninstaller back when I used to install crapware. My understanding is that the free version will only uninstall 32-bit applications now.
Probably the only thing I care about on that list but I don't install junk anymore so fuck it.
>>60094866
They just put all the good games in the monthly bundles now.
>>60094130
if you can't torrent at your home that's probably illegal under net neutrality laws
