AskWoody PlusMay 3, 2020 at 1:46 pm #2258678Several weeks ago I downloaded and installed the PrivaZer v4.0 (Donors version) on my Windows 10 work station.
After running it once I uninstalled it.
The issue was a concern that it may damage my system.
Has anyone seen a recent independent/credible review of the software by one of the major website such a COMPUTERWORLD, ZDNet, BLEEPINGCOMPUTER, etc.?
