The free version of this plugin is basically just a placeholder or if you prefer a marketing channel for the authors to get you to do a paid upgrade. After installation your site gets plastered with red warnings aggressively looking for you to upgrade to a paid plan. I have zero problem with people making money but given this is the WP.org plugins repo I’d have expected the plugin to do a lot more.

It either deleted or corrected the files that were corrupted. In case of a doubt, it submits the file for human check up.
