Adware/Malware ridden installer

Adware/Malware ridden installer, dev is just snarky about it and insults people who don't want their systems infected with god knows what. Cannot recommend.

Be careful

If you really need it, be careful when installing because it will advertise malware that you might accidentally download if you're not careful. It doesn't even work that well anyway, and if you're like me, it's more fun to play games the way they were made instead of cheating.

Good software for cheating

Good software for cheating, but it will download somekind of "virusprotection" tool for your pc, if you aren't careful enough when installing.

sketchy

when downloading, it installed RAV antivirus, VPN by RAV and saferweb, the only option i was able to decline was mcafee in the actual installation process; absolutely check your apps after installing this

Running in the back ground.

I closed the cheat engine client as I was done playing the game I wanted it on, thought the client would terminate and stay off and NOT RUN IN THE BACKGROUND. I went and opened cod vanguard and it wouldn't open for some reason, and then I was issued a permanent ban because this runs in the background when you close it. I can't get an appeal, I can't do anything. I pre-ordered and I bought the deluxe edition, I hate this stupid client, and I'm tired of it. Waste of 100$ on a game just to get an insta ban because of a client in the background that I didn't even do anything with. The window wasn't open, I closed it out without saving, and after I got my ban, I looked in the "Processes" "Resource monitor" tab, and sure enough, there it was. Cheat engine running in the background after I closed it.

Reason for the bad reviews even when there is no viruses

This works well but some people say there is viruses because they dont read what they install. If people took the time it takes to read the stuff it installs then this app wouldn't have any bad reviews. Every cheat, hack, and mod menu literally runs with something like this at there core.

Be aware of viruses when downloading

Used this 2 years ago and it was fine with no viruses at all but recently got it again and it downloaded some viruses which were slowing down the pc, using up all of the cpu, and giving random ads. Be careful when downloading as it could give you this aswell.

A good app but the virus lurking inside

This app is good, but it's come with the virus and install some malware,then make your computer slower , very slow, so, be careful before installing it in your PC, and I hope this things fixed asap. Also the viruses are irritating, confirmed that it will make you very mad. I said this because I downloaded and installed it in my PC, and the viruses came and silently install some freaking malware and make my PC crash many times, I'm trying to reset my PC but it's very hard cause the PC keep crashing when I'm trying to open something.
AND I HOPE THIS THINGS SOLVED AND FIX ASAP.
