Monthly, I check for program updates and I noticed Recuva's file size more than doubled? Why?
The previous version, v1.53 build 1087 from 2016 is 5,346 kb
Now I noticed the latest v1.53 build 2078 from Apr11/22 is now 11,608 kb
If there was so much new code, there should be major changes. Maybe a what's new file of changes?
I'm worried that there is embedded crapware inside this new installation file.
Can anyone shed light on this?
Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply.
That makes sense. My install file for recuva is date 2016-06-08 and is 5.21M. I seem to remember checking a few years ago (maybe 2020) and noticed the file grew, but had the same version. When I tested it, there were many offers and other crapware, so I ignored that version and still use the smaller file from 2016.
While I don't use Recuva much, it is definitely a part of my toolkit that I carry around of USB. I use CCleaner much more.
Is there any 'what is new' (or change log) file for what this version improved?
Thanks again!
