Why the LG Monitor App installed without my notice?
- Nov 19, 2024
This is the app from LG and safe to use.
Certain drivers come with separate applications for managing device settings. If the application is a Win32 version, it is typically installed alongside the driver. However, if it is a packaged app, such as those for LG monitors, Intel Graphics, or some HP printers, it is more likely to be downloaded from the App Store.
What really makes me mad is I said well, ok, so what cool benefits does it give me to leverage my LG monitor? So I started the install of the monitor program (I made sure to uncheck McAfee lol) and first thing is a terms and service I have to accept. Sure, typical.
But what infuriates me is the text is tiny and they actively prevent you from being able to select the text to copy into Notepad where you can actually see what you are agreeing to. Such BS!!
I had GPT transcribe it in case anyone wants to proceed with the software: https://pastebin.com/t8FcZLaj
Though personally, after seeing that, I've no interest in their !@#% so I just killed it off.
