Why are some people concerned about whether the Freemake video downloader is safe to use or not? The main reason is that the software will install an extra toolbar or add-on program without you noticing it. When and where?
Remember in the section above, step no 6, if you just accept the “Full installation” option, it may install the program plus some extra tools (that may NOT be needed by you).
Update: As of September 2022, I see that there is no extra program being installed even if you choose the full installation option while installing the program. So, it’s a clean and safe program to use.
