No, don't install it, it's unnecessary. In fact, I advise against downloading from the Softronic site.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to reply. One clarification: Softonic is already on my PC and I must admit I don’t know how it got there. However, I would like to know BEFORE uninstalling it, what its role is and what issues could arise if I uninstall it? Thank you in advance for giving me your opinion. Best regards.

Softronic collects information about you; it's spyware, a spy software.

I had serious problems with Softonic because it was the only one offering the software I was looking for. It was a disaster! Not only did it never download the requested software, but it also loaded others with all the viruses you can imagine. It took control of my homepage with no way out. I had to restore my system. Avoid this site at all costs — it's a hacker trap! It should be kicked off the Net!

So it's somewhat normal for the link to be dead.

I wanted to download Office 2010 from the Windows 8.1 store and I was redirected directly to this site that I had always avoided. Anyway, the download started. Once it's finished, I'll get rid of Softonic and then we'll see.

Did your manipulation succeed? If so, how did you uninstall Softonic?

damchag > alexis 70400

I'm not home. I'll be back tomorrow and will keep you updated.

Good evening
I couldn't install it, I'm being asked for a key. Normal but brief.
However, for Softonic, there's no need to uninstall it, I don't have it on the computer.

I say this: NEVER go to this site. Never!

Is Softonic paid?

Softonic is not a virus, well... if it is by force of circumstances, just like Mediafire, because many people upload pirated files due to a lack of control.
