I just installed FreeFileSync 8.5 from this URL:
https://freefilesync.org/download/FreeFileSync_8.5_Windows_Setup.exe

During the installation process, the installer suggested to install ReachIt Software.
The description sounded interesting, so I wanted to find out what exactly this software would do and found this web page:
http://www.lenovo.com/us/en/apps/reachit/

... stating that the service has been closed and stopped working on Sep 12th 2016.

So IMHO this should be removed from the FFS installer, shouldn't it?

Kind regards

p.s. thanks for the greate FreeFileSync software which I like a lot and also like recommending it to others. :-)

Very peculiar, indeed. I'll find out why this software is still offered by the installer. Thanks!

This offer should already have been disabled. Are you running the installer in a VM or the like?
