Once installed a restart will be requested by the application to complete the install.Īfter the restart has completed the software will be fully installed and ready to use, upon first opening the software you will be asked to enter a licence code or select to evaluate the software over a period of 10 days (30 if you decide to register with Ashampoo).įinally, with the registration out of the way the software will begin by greeting you with a prompt asking you to start by dragging and dropping in a photo to be worked on or to select a folder containing multiple images to work on. Once downloaded and set running the Ashampoo installer will take care of most of the work for you, the option is there to install in a different location to the default should you so wish but if you like to stay with the default setting this really is a painless process. At just over 100MB the download is also very reasonably sized for such a feature packed application meaning the initial download is also very easy to complete.

As with all Ashampoo software installing Photo Optimizer 8 was both quick and easy and I had the application running within just a couple of minutes.
