I found a product that was exactly the same as this project in Microsoft Store #414

Open sh0ckj0ckey opened 5 years ago

Here Is The Link To Windows10 Store

Not sure it is uploaded by you, and it's not free, the APP's name and logo is different, but screenshot is exactly the same.

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

This was reported almost a month ago in #405. I'm not the one who is selling the app on Microsoft Store. And, even after reporting that app on Microsoft Store, tweeting to MicrosoftStore and trying to contact their support, I received no favourable response. Captura isn't the only open-source software being illegally sold on Microsoft Store. For instance, ScreenToGif comes to mind. See #405 for more info.


To everyone seeing this issue, please report the app on Microsoft Store.

sh0ckj0ckey commented 5 years ago

This is an outrage, I'll report him, even if it's useless😠

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Have you tried reaching their India support? MSsup

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

Yeah, I tried that but could not get to a support person.

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Try this number... 877-696-7786

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Not sure if its US based number... but try anyway...

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

I was told that support persons are available only from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. So, I'll try contacting on that number tomorrow morning.

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Great... Hope something works out...

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

It's the same as the previous time, all their customer service representatives are busy. I am still unable to talk to a support person. It would be really helpful if anyone could report this for me.

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

I think its US number and you need to affix +1 and call them....

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

I can't call the US number. I haven't subscribed for ISD.

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Buy some skype credits or find a cheaper alternative... Its cheaper nowadays...

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Its cheap https://www.skype.com/en/calling-rates/

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Finally got some response from Microsoft store via their FB page. Screenshots of the conversation coming soon...

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Here are the screenshots of the chat conversation... MS store_01 MS store_02

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

That's really great. Let me know when they respond further.

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Hey, I heard from them... Here is their reply... MS store_03

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

I am posting the two links they have provided below... As advised use them to connect with their support team...

http://msft.social/u6C91g (U.S.) or http://msft.social/FoPC0N (outside of U.S.).

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

I dont know how useful these links are... I have tried them earlier and I dont see any way to report the issue on those pages... Hope that the issue is resolved and we dont have to use those links...

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Please try reaching this number as well that I found on one of the support pages... 0008004402127

I seem to recall at least a dozen different Github posts requesting a Microsoft Store version. I think I'll reference this thread everytime the topic comes up from now on. After all, if piracy from one platform that they own (Github) sold on another platform they own (Microsoft Store) clearly isn't a priority, why invest time and energy?

It's very doable: Softpedia resolved the pirated entry almost immediately and they don't own either service.

Fake version of OBS Studio https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/ultra-screen-recorder/9n7d4xkg96km I'm really pissed off now.

vishalsnayak commented 5 years ago

Congrats... finally we managed to make this app a free download... https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/screen-recorder-pro-display-window-region/9nkn36vnk55z?cid=msft_web_chart&fbclid=IwAR3korgkep76KHtwPfOl_pqG323haraTPpVoho7YT1bSo8w8DLp0RBddUjI&activetab=pivot%3Aoverviewtab

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

@vishalsnayak That's just bait. That person occasionally reduces the price or sells it for free to encourage more downloads.

MathewSachin commented 5 years ago

Even if Captura is licensed under MIT license, which allows selling if the license files are not removed, selling it will still be illegal if BASS is included without purchasing a license.

Yeah I'm ... really beyond words.
