Power Cleaner 2018

Posted: September 13, 2018

The Power Cleaner 2018 is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) marketed falsely as a PC optimization tool capable of executing a wide range of services such as detecting malware threats and enhancing system performance in particular. Supposedly developed by a company called Pcvark Software Pvt. Ltd., the Power Cleaner 2018 is promoted on a couple of sites heavily, www(dot)advancedsyscare(dot)co and www(dot)mypclogics(dot)org as 'the world's most liked and preferred PC protection utility' namely.

Those PC users who happen to visit the aforementioned sites are treated to a plethora of other useful components they will enjoy in the Power Cleaner 2018 were they download and install it – Registry Cleaner, Startup Cleaner, Browser Adware & Add-on Remover, multilingual interface, all-range Windows OS compatibility, and a telephone for support available at a toll-free call to (888) 310-7068. Of course, all those extras are only available in the premium paid edition of the Power Cleaner 2018 software. Users who have installed the Power Cleaner 2018 software have complained that the Power Cleaner 2018 came bundled with other, unwanted pieces of software. What is more, the program's features appear to have proven not as reliable as advertised. Last but not least, a good number of people on YellowPages.ca have flagged the toll-free number mentioned above as one potentially used by con artists, thus raising further concern about the authenticity of the Power Cleaner 2018.

A more detailed study of the very architecture and interface of the Power Cleaner 2018 has linked the program to a handful of other similarly named PC optimization tools out there, namely PC Fixer Pro 2018, Speedy PC Pro 2018, Super Speedup 2018, Win Speedup 2018, and AutoFixer 2018. As it seems, there are reasonable grounds for believing that they are all carbon copies of the Power Cleaner 2018, most likely serving the same shady purposes, as well.
