Advanced PC Fixer

Advanced PC Fixer is a dubious PC optimization tool that several anti-virus vendors have classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP). PUPs are not considered to be threatening, and they are exactly what their names state they are – Potentially Unwanted Applications that may sometimes appear on the user's computer even though the user did not intend to install them. The Advanced PC Fixer software promises to be a great helper when it comes to improving a computer's speed because it has the ability to clean and optimize the Registry, startup items, and fix various Windows errors that may lead to potential performance issues.

All of Advanced PC Fixer's promises may seem attractive, but what the website and promotional offers might forget to mention is that Advanced PC Fixer comes in two versions – a free one and a paid one. The free one only works as a scanner, and installing it on your computer will not do anything to improve its performance. Instead, it may only generate a report of pending issues and optimization fixes that can be applied. However, to fix any of the potential problems automatically, users must purchase the full version of Advanced PC Fixer which is not cheap at all – an initial payment of €24 for a 6-month license, and then recurring payments of €11.97 every six months. The Advanced PC Fixer's official page shares a lot of similarities with US System Care, another PUP that credible anti-malware software detects and removes. The US System Care software also shares the same interface as Advanced PC Fixer, so it is very likely that both programs belong to the same company.

Users who opt not to purchase the full version may see constant reminders that their PC's performance can be optimized by purchasing the full version of Advanced PC Fixer. These notifications may appear in the Taskbar, at Windows startup, or as notification alerts while they are doing other things on their computer. Basically, Advanced PC Fixer may use slightly invasive techniques to tell users that paying for the full version of the Advanced PC Fixer software is recommended. Although Advanced PC Fixer is indeed capable of fixing some common computer problems, it is far from the miraculous application it claims to be. If you don't remember installing Advanced PC Fixer and you are tired of its constant reminders that you should pay for the full license, then we suggest that you take the necessary actions to remove this PUP from your computer. The most efficient way to handle the removal of PUPs like Advanced PC Fixer is to use a credible anti-virus product, but in some cases, it might also be possible to get rid of the unwelcome application by just uninstalling it via the Windows Control Panel manually.
