[Recuva 1.53 installation file size doubles? Why?]

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!

[Recuva 1.53 installation file size doubles? Why?]

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
