If you don’t know how to download the Bandicam or want to fix a situation in which the maximum video length is 10 minutes, then read the article to the end and you will find out all the answers to your questions.
Installation Recommendations
So, if you don’t know how to download Bandikam, then we have only one piece of advice - download from the official website. Only this method will protect you from many problems that may arise in the process of using the software.
The fact is that "problems" can arise even at the stage of a simple installation. It is possible that you download the program with the modified code in which the virus was embedded. In general, such a version will not differ from the official one and, most likely, will even function, however, if a high-quality antivirus is not installed on your operating system, it may miss a malicious program that could significantly harm your computer.
In addition, always pay attention to the checkboxes in the installer program, as together with Bandicam you can download and install other programs that you do not really want to see on your PC.
It was just one piece of advice on how to download Bandicam. Perhaps it will not suit everyone, since the program is paid, and you have to pay for the official version. Therefore, now we’ll talk about the consequences of an unlicensed version of the software.
Why video recording lasts 10 minutes
The answer to this question is very simple: if your video recording lasts only 10 minutes, it means that you downloaded the official version of the program, but did not pay for it. In this case, you can use it with absolute impunity, but there are minor restrictions.
You already guessed one thing: the length of the recording will not exceed 10 minutes, the second penalty is that after recording on the video a watermark will be placed at the top. Unfortunately, it cannot be removed in any way, and it is sufficiently capable of harming the quality of video shooting.
So, we have already figured out where and how to download "Bandicam" so that it could not harm your computer, but in this case you will be limited by some fines due to the use of an unlicensed version. Now we will figure out how to fix it.
How to license a program
There are two ways to license a program in order to get the full “Bandicam”, so to speak. The first is absolutely legal and one hundred percent, and the second is not quite.
Now let's talk about the first. It implies the purchase of a license key. However, problems may arise here. The fact is that the price of this product is not entirely loyal to Russian users, and many feel sorry for spending such an amount on its purchase. At the time of writing (late 2016), the cost of the licensed version of Bandicam is 2,600 rubles, or $ 39. And here, many users can buy the trick of scammers.
The fact is that on many sites they sell keys at a lower price, and there is a huge chance that you will be deceived. Therefore, refrain from such purchases. In extreme cases, find the "crack" "Bandikam." What it is and where to look for it will be described below.
How to "crack" a program
Now it's time to talk about the not entirely legal way of licensing the program. On the Internet, this is called a "quack." The method got this name because of the name of the application that hacks the program - Crack.
This cracker can be found on the Internet. The “crack” for “Bandicam” is most often an archive in which cracker files are located. All you need to do is unzip it and run the program with the "crack", and then follow the instructions.
However, such a method is not entirely safe, since a “crack” is a virus, however, not capable of harming the system. This is at best, but sometimes it happens that attackers put malware there, and since hacking the Bandicam requires you to disable antivirus programs, the chance of infection increases several times. In general, you will use this method at your own risk.
