Unwanted Apps

SafeSoft PC Cleaner is an unwanted system optimization utility. Programs of such are usually not able to provide the high-quality features they claim. They promise to fix various issues (e.g. obsolete Windows Registry items, junk files like cache, memory dumps, and so forth), but in turn create fake problem results to trick users into activating paid versions. SafeSoft PC Cleaner is not an exception as it is also suspected to do the same. Furthermore, some security experts point out that the program can be malicious and therefore dangerous for users who have it installed and running. If SafeSoft PC Cleaner got installed on your system, be it with or without your consent, we recommend you remove it and not pay for any services it may thereby offer. Use our guide below to do it fast and without traces.

As claimed by developers, "Advanced ScreenSnapshot is the most convenient way to take a customizable screenshot". While this application may provide the promised screenshot-related features indeed, its distribution means employed by the creators make it categorized as an adware-type program. The reasons for that are virtual layers abused by cybercriminals to display obtrusive and irrelevant ads over innocent pages. Advanced ScreenSnapshot may be able to promote various banners and ads redirecting users to unwanted or even dangerous pages. Adware applications are also notorious for their ability to track and gather sensitive data (e.g. passwords, IP addresses, geolocations, etc.). Users having Advanced ScreenSnapshot installed may be susceptible to the above-mentioned threats to a tangible extent. It is also worth noting that Advanced ScreenSnapshot might not be the only adware application being spread around the web. It may very well have several clones promoting unwanted changes under the disguise of useful capabilities. We, therefore, recommend you deal with ScreenSnapshot and delete it from your computer as soon as possible. More information on this can be found in our guidelines below.

Bloom is a sneaky application developed to promote unwanted advertising content. Users may end up having this application installed as a result of downloading some third-party software from the net. Software with advertising abilities is often categorized as adware. It aims at generating traffic by displaying intrusive content to users who browse the web. The kind of content usually depends on users' geolocations and browsing habits. Bloom may show advertisements even on legitimate and official pages like Youtube, Facebook, and other websites by using virtual layers. The shown advertisements may sometimes look nice, but conceal unwanted redirects to adult pages, online casinos, web games, fake software updates/installers, and tons of other low-quality content. Operation of adware inside of a system may also mean lower PC performance due to higher consumption of CPU and Memory resources. If you feel yourself being a victim of Bloom adware with the symptoms we listed above, then use our guide below to perform its removal and restore normal computer experience.

Developed by Mesa Roha Solutions LLC, PC Doctor is considered to be a rogue browser application (extension). It claims to improve general PC performance, increase browsing safety as well as deliver other useful features. Although PC Doctor positions itself as a legitimate product, its deceptive distribution techniques made it acquire a label of potentially unwanted software. This is because it is often spread along with other freeware programs from third-party resources (download.com, softonic.com, soft32.com, etc.). The extension is also heavily doubted in its efficiency and reliability as well. PC Doctor is able to access your browser session and gather personal content (e.g. passwords, IP-addresses, geolocations, etc.) to use it for selling purposes afterwards. Users that got PC Doctor unwillingly have also reported they see an increased number of ads while surfing the web. PC Doctor does have that ability indeed and can generate additional ads to earn money on traffic. In summary, this browser extension is unwanted and recommended to be removed from your PC. Follow our instructions below to do it correctly and without traces.

VLOPlayer tries to look like a legitimate alternative to a well-known and trusted VLC Player. Although it might perform the same features, VLOPlayer itself is spread through unwanted software categorized as a browser hijacker. It is called Search by VLO and is meant to alter browser settings to assign a fake search engine named vlosearch.com. This new address will be displayed instead of your default homepage and new tab. It will also redirect your search queries through legitimate engines like Bing, Google, and maybe others as well. This means vlosearch.com is unable to generate its own results, which downgrades its value of usage significantly. Software that has browser hijacking abilities is recommended to be removed from your system due to its suspicious and potentially dangerous behavior. It is also necessary to mention that many hijackers access browser settings to get data-tracking abilities (of passwords, IP addresses, geolocations, and other sensitive data), which is another argument for its removal. To succeed in full and trace-free deletion, we advise you to stick to our instructions below.

Chrono SpeedUp is a rogue-type program distributed across many Windows users. The main concept of this utility lies in PC optimization to keep your system clean and protected against malicious threats. Unfortunately, many experts, as well as users themselves, tend to express heavy doubts about its capabilities. Chrono SpeedUp is suspected of fabricating scan results to force users into activating the license. In other words, this is a premium version that has to be purchased to access all features of the optimization program. Without it, users will be unable to delete all threats outlined in fake post-scan results. Chrono SpeedUp is not the first program we see of this sort. According to some sources it is one of the hundreds of clones of notorious PC Accelerate Pro scam. There have been many similar programs like Chrono SpeedUp pursuing money, but not quality. Nobody downloads them intentionally, so their creators use unwanted and stealth distribution methods to get installed against users' consent and make them believe their PC needs help. If you really want to equip yourself with modern and high-quality optimization software, it is better to opt for already trusted and long-existent programs like IObit Uninstaller, IObit, and other reputable products. We encourage you to delete Chrono SpeedUp from your system as long as it brings no value to the PC experience. Make sure to follow our instructions below and get rid of the program completely without traces.

Some apps installed on Mac can be extremely annoying and piss off many users that struggle to delete them. This is especially popular with low-reputation products that try to stick around systems as long as possible. Rather than developing their own quality, they focus on making their apps undeletable to force inexperienced people to continue the usage. Oftentimes, manual uninstallation of such apps can leave lots of residual files that will accumulate over time loading up system resources. If you consider yourself part of this category, we will help you unchain your Mac from persistent software that mulishly hangs inside of your system.

Pegasun System Utilities is suspected of fabricating scan results to convince users their PC is under severe condition. It is also distributed using doubtful methods to avoid users' consent, which makes it categorized as a Potentially Unwanted App. On the initial basis, the program is represented as a utility with lots of helpful abilities to maintain a high level of system performance. The supposedly fake optimizer provides a bundle of features like cleaning, protection, optimization, data backup, and other sub-tools. It also has support for the latest Windows 11. As mentioned, this optimization utility is heavily doubted in generating trustworthy results and fixing any issues at all. After detecting space issues and security threats, Pegasun System Utilities asks you to purchase the premium version. Otherwise, your PC will remain cluttered or endangered by other threats. The information it claims is likely to be falsified and should not be trusted by users. Also, such drawbacks may raise a serious question of whether Pegasun System Utilities collects your data or not. Many unwanted apps can read your PC sessions and gather potentially useful data that cybercriminals can convert into financial benefits.
