The EULA is displayed first, and it has an odd relay clause. So, you should get your copy from the official page. This is the biggest issue with the program, as there is a similar site that appears on Search results (has Daumpotplayer in the URL), and that one is apparently a fake website. Note: The official website of PotPlayer is. Here are the screenshots which I took before installing the media player. VirusTotal gave the set up a clean record, except for ClamWin which said it has a generic malware. I can confirm that the current version (I tested 201209 v7) does not contain options for installing third-party software. There was only one way to find out, and I finally decided to give PotPlayer another chance. So, I went through many reddit threads and other forums, where users reported that the latest versions of the video player are clean. Despite my history with it, I wanted to reassure myself that it was safe. When Martin asked me to take a look at PotPlayer recently, I told him I was concerned about the program's recent issues. Later, I came to know that PotPlayer had started shipping adware with options to install third-party software like Opera, and more recently the inclusion of Avast's installer, among other issues. I ditched PotPlayer after a few years, because MPC seemed to be a lighter alternative at least on my old computer.
