Developed by Analog Devices, LTspice is the gold standard for free analog simulation. It is not as "pretty" as Electronics Workbench, but it is faster and more accurate.
The term "free download" is often a euphemism for software piracy when applied to commercial products like Electronics Workbench V10.0. Originally, this software cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars depending on the edition (Student, Professional, or Power Pro). Downloading it from unofficial websites—such as torrent trackers, file-sharing forums, or cracked software archives—constitutes copyright infringement. These unauthorized copies bypass licensing servers, disable copy-protection mechanisms, and violate the software’s End User License Agreement (EULA). Beyond legal consequences, such actions disrespect the intellectual property rights of the developers, including National Instruments, who invested significant resources into creating and refining the simulation engine.

The ethical issue of piracy is compounded by practical, high-stakes risks. Sites offering a "free download" of Electronics Workbench V10.0 are often untrustworthy. Cybersecurity firms consistently report that "cracked software" is a leading vector for malware, including trojans, ransomware, and keyloggers. A user downloading a setup.exe file labeled "EWB10_Free_Crack.exe" may unknowingly install a backdoor into their computer. Furthermore, the lack of official support means the software will not receive security patches or updates, leaving the system vulnerable to known exploits. For students or professionals using shared or institutional computers, downloading such files can compromise entire networks. Developed by Analog Devices, LTspice is the gold

However, there were two legitimate ways users obtained it for free back in the day, which might explain the myth of the "free download":
Let’s assume you find an ISO file for "Electronics Workbench V10.0" on a torrent site. What happens next?
Instead of hunting for V10.0, go directly to the source. National Instruments offers Multisim Live – a cloud-based version that is completely free for basic use.
