Freeware software

Freeware programs are software programs that are given away by the author for others to use free of charge. It is free for personal use and can be downloaded from the internet.

Freeware does not require any payment from the license or end-user, but it is not precisely free software, despite the fact that to an end-user the software is acquired in what appears to be an identical manner.

The users abide by the license terms, where the user cannot make changes to it, or sell it to someone else. 

Freeware programs are frequently developed by students, professional programmers and amateur programmers.

Freeware differs slightly from free software. Free software simply implies that the software is distributed for free.

The free software implies that the software is not only freeware but it is also open source.

Freeware is typically distributed without the programs source code.

The programmer of the freeware can choose to release the software’s source code for free or with a fee or the programmer can keep the source code proprietary.
