So, I remember using Cheat Engine without any problems some years ago and for a game I'm currently playing I wanted to install it again but apparently the installer comes with adware (and some other stuff even if youre careful and decline all the options). Atleast some users have started complaining about stuff being installed on their pc without consent. Alot of those complaints started about three years ago. What makes me also pretty sus is the developer being very unhelpful and going down hard on alternative download sources (those that come without the ads) not too mention him being called out on github multiple times and his responses being fishy as fuck. Anyone got an either an alternative or has some experience with this?

it's been known to bundle adware for years, you need to compile cheat engine, it's not super hard, luckily
