It installed without a hitch. The interface was exactly the same as the cracked version, but when he looked at the "About" section and saw his own name as the registered user, the feeling was entirely different.

I need to refuse this directly. But just saying "no" isn't helpful. The user might actually need a screen recorder but is looking for free options due to budget constraints. So I should pivot to a value-added response. I'll explain why cracks are bad - legal risks, malware, lack of updates, ethical issues. Then offer legitimate alternatives: the free version of Icecream itself, or other free tools like OBS, ShareX, or built-in Xbox Game Bar.
