The PC Reg Boost by iNextITNetwork that you can find at pcregboost.com/#home-tabs is advertised as a reliable system optimizer. Computer users are invited to install the trial version of PcRegBoost and scan their OSes for errors. You may install the trial version of PcRegBoost with a freeware bundle. You may be surprised to notice that the PcRegBoost app initiates a startup scan whenever you boot into Windows, which may prevent you from opening the Internet browser without closing PcRegBoost first. The PcRegBoost app is said to support a modern interface that is easy to use, but users may find that the UI does not use custom icons and features icons you will find in Windows and on the platform at Iconarchive.com. Also, the designers appear to have taken images from the Glary Utilities by Glarysoft and Windows 7 Update and the built-in defragment tool in Windows OS. The support line listed on the main program window of PcRegBoost is a proxy phone number 888-888-888, which may redirect users to any number of VOIP phone lines.

Computer experts that tested PcRegBoost have determined that it provides users with a customized interface that accesses the built-in defragment utility, the Disks Manager, the Control Panel and the System Restore Points Manager in Windows. PcRegBoost does not support standalone optimization technologies and does not appear to function correctly. PC users that are looking for a powerful optimization tool may not be satisfied with the performance of PcRegBoost and the lack of adequate computer support line. However, the PcRegBoost app may bring up a pop-up window several times a day and welcome you to pay 23.99 USD per year for the professional version of PcRegBoost by iNextITNetwork and have your PC repaired. We do not recommend installing PcRegBoost as it is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP), which may not meet your expectations. Additionally, the payment portal associated with PcRegBoost and located at pcregboost.com/checkout does not appear to use an SSL encrypted connection. That means a third-party may collect your credit card data as it is transmitted over the Internet. You should avoid paying for services by PcRegBoost and have it removed with ha trustworthy anti-malware instrument.
