mooms Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Why don't you download it and compare ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attended Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 I've done that and i couldn't find any differences, only that installer is appr. 11MB and the one i download here is appr. 4MB. Virustotal couldn't find anything suspicious in it. These are the properties\details of the one i downloaded here: These are the properties\details from the one i found on usenet: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiersee Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) Some sites offers the unpacked installer!May be the second is the content of the first. Thiersee Edited October 22, 2014 by Thiersee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attended Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 I'm not stupid Both are setup.exe but the one from here is anonymous in properties\details and the one from usenet is not so anonymous. But the only one who could answer my question is the creator, i hope i get an answer from himself. I would have concerns if my software is distributed and in some way changed.

Thiersee Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) The two file have a different names! The first one (WinToolkit_1.5.2.13_installer.exe) is the content of the installer-archive and installs the program on your computer;the second one (WinToolkit.exe) is the content of the portable-archive with the version running without installation. BTW, I did not say you were stupid... Regards, Thiersee Edited October 22, 2014 by Thiersee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attended Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) How very analytic of you, just kidding. A filename is changed quickly, but i wanted to verify if that one is the real original, because that one has the original property details and the one downloaded using the update check option in wintoolkit hasn't. I hadn't checked the portable, it seems to be that it's the portable with poor compression. The poster on usenet didn't mention it was the portable repacked with poor compression. Thanks for your interest. Edited October 22, 2014 by Attended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolash2o Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 The official installer is around 3.8MB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
