Basically the title.

More details : My gf’s teacher basically sent them a link to download a pirated version of Photoshop to work on some minor thing. We live in a developing country where piracy is the norm even in universities and the like, because no student has the means to buy it. I just want to know if it’s likely safe to download from there.

surprisingly, I’m sure getintopc’s mods are same as the notorious oceanofgames yet it is considerably a more reputable site. Although I have to say it is mentioned on the megathread with the unsafe sites as one of the ones Particularly avoided by the pirate community.

If you already downloaded the file then scan with Kaspersky or Malwarebytes as they are imo the most reputable AVs in the industry nowadays (the free tier of Kaspersky is more than enough). Alternatively I think you can copy the download URL and patse it on virustotal and get the file scanned (no need to actually upload I think).
