Its official website claims that Complete System Care can keep system working in most favorable condition . It has optimization features like junk cleaner, registry error fixer, program manager, malware protection, online privacy and security, disk defrag, and so on. Most similar products that we have tested also offers the same components. However, we observed that nearly all of them are employing scan and detect function, which we see as scare tactics to persuade users into buying the paid version of Complete System Care.
After running a scan, this program will prompt an alert stating several issues found on the computer. To exaggerate its claims, Complete System Care will detect hundreds of troubles that need to repair. As mentioned, the only way to fix them is by paying for the registration code of Complete System Care. Thus, if user choose to continue with the process, the program will pop-up its payment processing web page wherein users are required to fill-up all the fields including credit card information.
Being unsafe on revealing payment details is just one worry we are facing with Complete System Care. Added to that, this program is using malicious method to spread all over the internet. Complete System Care is typically packed to suspicious freeware and shareware. Pop-up ads and redirects on certain websites are utilized to promote Complete System Care and carry out a forceful installation on visitor’s computer.
As of now, there is no importance to capitalize on this optimization tool. In fact, Windows operating systems have built-in programs that can perform much better that those offered by Complete System Care. Therefore, we highly suggest immediate removal of this unwanted program. Its presence and running processes may just increase system resources usage that can result to slow down and system crashes.
