I had my program online and I can’t see it anymore

If you published your program with us and after some time cannot see it, it could be due to a number of reasons.  We carry out regular checks on our Catalog to ensure its health and if a software title has generated zero sessions in six months, it is automatically removed. We do this to ensure the catalog’s freshness and relevance to our key audience.  We also carry out regular safety checks and likewise, if any software title is flagged as corrupt or with viruses we remove it from our catalog.  As a recommendation, we always encourage our developers to make sure their file has not become corrupt to avoid any risks. 

Can you write a review for my program?

Yes, we can write a review for your program written by our editors please contact admin@downloadfreepcapps.com and you’ll be informed about our Catalog Services and other advertising products. 

Where can I find technical support for a program or an app that I downloaded or purchased?

If you are in need of technical support for a specific software program, please contact the program’s developer. If you purchased the program directly from the developer, check your purchase confirmation email for contact information.  You can also find a link to the developer’s website on the Softonic review:  When requesting technical support, it is helpful to include the following information:
  • A screenshot or display of any error messages.
