SkinnyPlayer
SkinnyPlayer is a piece of software that the experts classify as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP). SkinnyPlayer is advertised as a light-weight media player that includes all important features of traditional media players without consuming excessive amounts of hardware resources. In short, SkinnyPlayer is a piece of software meant for low-end computers whose users want to play popular video and audio files without using a player that may diminish the performance of their computers.
While SkinnyPlayer is not advertised falsely, there are some worrying facts about the way this software is distributed. SkinnyPlayer may often be included in software bundles that use misleading installation tricks or other dubious methods to increase the chances that users will agree to install SkinnyPlayer on their computers unknowingly. Furthermore, this program also may be set as the default media player for popular video and audio files automatically, therefore forcing the user to open all media files with SkinnyPlayer.
Users who are bothered by SkinnyPlaye should consider removing the application from their computers. Since SkinnyPlayer is not a threatening application and it is installed as a regular Windows application, users might be able to uninstall it from the control panel. If this does not work, then the best course of action is to use a professional anti-malware scanner since they can identify and remove files associated with Potentially Unwanted Programs like SkinnyPlayer.
