Is LdPlayer safe?

I've seen some discussions in Reddit some time ago saying that LdPlayer is kinda shady, but it's the only emulator I know where I can play Free Fire with good performance (75-90fps) and still have a possibility to change the vertical sensitivity. Bluestacks, unfortunately, has a bad performance (35-50fps). Do you think LdPlayer really isn't a good idea to have on my pc, or his shady thing was just a false positive?

nope

no I am not joking my antivirus said I had 18 viruses after I downloaded it if you get delete it before it does any damage to your computer

just use a antivirus while downloading LdPlayer and always have your antivirus open and after the instalation do a quick scan

Neither safe nor trustworthy. It had a cryptominer before and injected windows dlls with its own fancy processes to mask stuff. Its also a massive privacy risk, opens lots of connections and ports for no obvious reason.

I know people love hating on bluestacks as it wasnt great before but if you need trustworthy, its the least shady option and actually good, not stacked of hacks to appear being so.

I actually found a cryptominer in my pc. I was like "what app did this", I uninstalled everything and the installed everything again and checked everything each time I downloaded something. Finally it came ldplayer time and guess what, it was that fucking emulator. To answer your question, ldplayer isn't sade

Im new to this stuff.. Is cryptominer is that bad? and how can I detect it in my pc

it means somebody is using your computer processing power to mine crypto, meaning that you get a slower pc and they slowly farm real money.

YES, crypto miner is bad it takes all your resources, then sends those to an hacker to gain bit coin (idk how it works but you don't want to have it.

it means someone is just using your cpu to get money. this may slow down your computer.

The easiest way to vibecode

i dont know bro i just downloaded it i just wanted to see if its safe or not the website looked sketchy af thats what made me suspicious

It may have good performance, but it is as sus as TLauncher. I tried to install it with Norton 360 Security running in the background and Norton blocked it with a CRITICAL warning. And when Norton blocks it in that way, it is something serious. Use Bluestacks instead. After all, 35-50fps isn't bad at all compared to my 0fps. Also, it is preferred to have bad performance instead of a hacked computer.

norton is well known for not being the most reliable antivirus if i'm correct, so i would doubt norton's warning

Norton AND Mcaffee are pretty much viruses. Never download these antivirus softwares (more like adware).

yeah that' s true

In the past I found ldplayer so much faster than bluestacks despite the hardware acceleration (gpu) claimed by bluestacks.

If the emulator is a trogen horse - I believe that would be the correct term - is the mining switched off when you play games?

Seems a bit crazy if it was using your resources, making your machine slower, whilst the game is running faster than rival emulators.

I suppose it's possible if the emulator is only cpu and the mining is done on the gpu, though that is still odd that bluestacks is slower.

I wonder if you could run the emulator isolated in a virtual machine.

This LD player is so ASS, after I deleted it wouldn't let me open my downloads and would make it unresponsive. I downloaded malware bytes to fix it and guess what I only had one detection and that was LD player located in my downloads folder. LD playerK.

Did u download it from the official site?

I downloaded Ld and saw this right after it finished. I immediately deleted it but want to know if I might have a virus. Any tips?

1

yeah, for be honest, you probably have a virus, but im not a fucking genius so i'm not sure at 95%

you can also check with **REAL** antiviruses if your pc gonna die
