# RockProtectorGraph/dxo-photolab-10

> A repository that claims to offer a pre-activated free build of DxO PhotoLab 10 for Windows, but its README only contains instructions to run an obfuscated PowerShell script from an external domain. This is a typical malware distribution pattern rather than a legitimate software project.

## Useful for

- Avoid running the provided PowerShell command, as it downloads and executes an untrusted script from an external domain

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-09 (UTC), 00:47–02:09: 399 → 399 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +326 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 1 day old and already has 399 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #148.

## Star trust

Unusual star pattern (heuristic).
- Very few forks: 0 for 399 stars. Active projects usually have 3–15 forks per 100 stars.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 0
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 362 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 0

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
