This is a program that could in theory 'remove' all those wonderful giveaways that you have collected from GOTD. Most of the 'keepers' that i have collected have 'lifetime licences' as long as I do not try and update them.
I am speaking from a bad experience with a similar 'software updater'.....NOT this program which tried to update every installed program I had. I actually do like most Glarysoft software, but I am not prepared to take the risk in this case.
Pass.

The biggest problem i see is automatically updating programs that fall under the usual giveaway conditions - like no update or else - then it's too late, damage done. Good luck finding older installers, there are some sites that offer these but not all programs are available and not all versions of them.

So you really should make sure that you know beforehand which programs you can and could update and which not, so that you don't invalidate for example giveaway offers (or any other program with version limited licenses). Todays offer allows for selecting all at once or only specific items it found an update for, don't make the mistake to go for all just because it's convenient. I like to look for a changelog FIRST before installing a patch for whatever program, since there might be changes one doesn't like or there is something else to it.

Last thing, the program uses filepumaDOT com to look for updates, so if you don't want to install any program, you could aswell manually visit the site and look for updates or any other similar site out there.

Why not just download Glary Utilities for free, it does same thing...

Why would you want another program running in the background just to tell you that you need to update? When all of your programs tell you anyway.

Roger,
It says "provides notifications and information on available software update", not "download and automatically installs" (thank goodness!).
To my mind, since Windows 10 updates and nags have been the bane of PC users' lives, so I for one will not be searching them out, "because", as they so rightly say on OldVersion.com, "newer is not always better!"

John H, PatchMyPC dos not try to update every program unless you let it. It gives you a list to choose from, where you can untick what you don't want to update.

I use it and it works very well, so I echo Gideon to ask what makes this offering better then PatchMyPC for the average user.
