This came with a bunch of bloatware, what gives?

[JadeShrineMaiden]

I got this to test my own game's anti-cheat functions, it installed a bunch of bloatware, had to wipe my pc clean... do i really need to compile this from scratch to not deal with this bs?

No, just follow the instructions of the installer to skip the adware.

The binary provided here is just a downloader for the real installer binary, shady practice.

@VioletFalcon Fork and compile your own, problem solved.

It's not just shady, but illegal.
