### 1/5 — Not as advertised

*2020-07-10*

I downloaded this because it said I can use it for free for 10 days, as soon as it was done downloading I tried to use it. I got a prompt to purchase it saying the due date was 1/1/00, then I noticed that the last time it was updated was 5 months ago.
Never got to try it before it demanded I buy it.

*2017-12-24*
