### FAQ
> I don't know what seeding or *insert another term* means...
You will find almost all terms related to piracy and more in [The Piracy Glossary](https://rentry.org/the-piracy-glossary). Didn't find what you're looking for or still confused? Reach out to us via [Discord](https://discord.gg/5W9QJKuPkD).
> How can I download / activate Windows or Microsoft Office for free?
For Windows check out this [section](#windows-piracy), and for Microsoft Office check out this [guide](https://gravesoft.dev/download_windows_office/office_c2r_links/).
> Where can I find *insert game title / movie title*?
You can use [WhereYouWatch](https://whereyouwatch.com) for finding movies, and for new movies it's a good idea to keep an eye on [r/movieleaks](https://reddit.com/r/movieleaks) as well. You should also be able to find most movies you're looking for in the [streaming section](#streaming). For games, you can use [Rezi](https://rezi.one) or any other site listed [here](https://fmhy.net/gamingpiracyguide#download-games), and for newly released games check out [r/crackwatch](https://reddit.com/r/crackwatch).
!!!info Pirated movie releases generally happen after a movie is digitally released or released via Blu-ray / DVD, which can take 3+ months after initially playing in theaters.
!!!warning Please avoid downloading games from any site listed [here](https://fmhy.net/unsafesites) as they're very likely to contain malicious links.
> How can I unlock *insert random game title* DLCs?
Use the tools listed [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/game-tools/#wiki_.25B7_steam_.2F_epic) to unlock DLCs.
> Should I install and use *insert random antivirus software* instead of using Windows Defender?
No, don't do that. Windows Defender is more than enough to keep you safe, but if you're still set on installing a secondary AV, the only one worth installing is Malwarebytes. Please read the note [here](#antivirus).
!!!warning Stay away from Avast, AVG, Avira, Norton, and McAfee, as these are "bloatware" and generally unsafe software.
> How can I download an image from *insert stock image site*?
You can use [this downloader](https://downloader.la/), and if it doesn't work you can find other stock image downloaders [here](https://fmhy.net/img-tools#stock-photos).
> How do I decode base64?
You can use [Base64 Decoders](https://fmhy.net/text-tools#encode-decode) or our [Auto Decode](https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/485772) script if you're on the fmhy base64 page.

> How important is using an adblocker?
!!!note Don't run multiple general adblockers like uBlock and Adblock Plus at the same time. Running more than one can [cause breakage](https://twitter.com/gorhill/status/1033706103782170625). This only applies to general adblockers, so running things like uBlock and Sponsorblock at the same time is fine.
Piracy sites usually contain ads, some of which can be harmful, often leading to unwanted pages or fake download buttons. Real download buttons are usually small, and match the sites design, while fake ones are often big and eye-catching. It can be hard to tell them apart, so its important to always have an adblocker.
For browsers we recommend **[uBlock Origin](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#installation)** , and you can also use a **[Redirect Skipper](https://fmhy.net/adblockvpnguide#redirect-bypass)** to skip annoying countdowns.
For mobile **[AdGuard Premium](https://rentry.co/FMHYBase64#adguard-premium)** / [iOS](https://rentry.co/FMHYBase64#adguard-pro-ios), and you can block YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter ads with **[ReVanced Manager](https://github.com/revanced/revanced-manager)**.

> How can I safely scan files, and determine if detection's are false positives?
!!!note Antivirus software is usually bloatware. Stick to trusted sources for games and software and you will be fine with nothing but Windows Defender and an occasional Malwarebytes scan. Remember to always scan software before installing it with tools like **[VirusTotal](https://www.virustotal.com/)** or use it in **[Sandboxie](https://rentry.co/sandboxie-guide)**.
Before installing any file, its recommended to scan the setup / install with **[VirusTotal](https://www.virustotal.com/)**. If you're having trouble determining if something is a false positive, refer to the **[Scan Guide](https://rentry.co/VTGuide)**, or send it to us in Discord and we'll take a look for you.
!!!note Most antivirus software is bloatware. As long as you stick to trusted sources you will be fine with just Windows Defender, and an occasional [Malwarebytes](https://www.malwarebytes.com/) scan.

* **[VPN List](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/adblock-vpn-privacy#wiki_.25BA_vpn)** - VPN index
> I don't have anything to hide, why should I care about privacy?
Privacy is about controlling your personal information, not just keeping things secret. Non-sensitive data is used by companies to track your behavior, target ads, and influence your choices.
For email privacy, we recommend **[Proton](https://proton.me/mail)** and for search **[SearX](https://searx.fmhy.net/)**. It's also good to check sites like [HaveIBeenPwned](https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords) to make sure your info hasn't been part of any recent data breaches.

> Which web browser should I use?
In general people recommend **[Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/)**, but you can also use things like **[Mullvad Browser](https://mullvad.net/en/browser)** for privacy, or **[Brave](https://brave.com/)** if you want a Chromium browser. For mobile **[Cromite](https://github.com/uazo/cromite)** and **[Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browsers/mobile/android/)** are both good options.
!!!note Its highly recommended to look through our [Extension](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/internet-tools#wiki_.25B7_browser_extensions) / [Userscript](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/internet-tools#wiki_.25B7_userscripts) pages to find ways to enhance your browser.

In many countries torrenting can get you in trouble with your ISP, so its necessary to have a **[VPN](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/adblock-vpn-privacy#wiki_.25BA_vpn)**. Most VPNs offer killswitches you should enable to prevent data leaks, but you can also **[bind your VPN](https://redd.it/ssy8vv)**, which prevents you from connecting at all unless your VPN is active. You can also use **[Remote Torrenting Services](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/torrent#wiki_.25B7_remote_torrenting)** to avoid the need for VPN altogether.
