One SystemCare may become very disruptive, displaying constant irritating messages, pop-up windows, and advertisements that interrupt computer users' activities and interfere with the affected computer's performance.

One SystemCare will claim that One SystemCare has found numerous problems and offer to fix them.

However, One SystemCare is not capable of detecting or removing any supposed problems on a computer. One SystemCare's claims are pure fabrication, designed specifically to scare inexperienced computer users into paying for One SystemCare's 'full version.' Because One SystemCare is not legitimate or capable of doing anything One SystemCare claims, One SystemCare should be removed with a security application.

I've purchased today the One systemcare, the call center asked me to let acsess to my notebook remotely for instal it and I said no, I never let somebody from a callcenter may be in India or Pakistan (for the accent), so I couldn't install it, but my arrow doesn't move, I cannot use my notebook, because the arrow is fixed in one point and donot allowme to even search nothing. i like to remove that system, even when is supported by Norton, and then I will ask for my money back or I will refuse the payment from my credit card. Please, I'm writing from my ipad mini, and I need help to remove from my notebook. I will appreciate any help to remove this from my notebook.
