Criticism[edit]
Free Studio (as can be common for freeware packages[22]) is criticized for toolbar and Web search engine installation. Older versions have also included OpenCandy, which is loaded in automatically, without any request for user approval.[23][24][17][25][26][17] There can be difficulties installing only the programs needed without installing bundled extra programs.[27]
In March 2017 DVDVideoSoft announced that it had stopped showing other products' ads during the installation and all the toolbars, search engine installations and OpenCandy were removed.[28]
