The PC Smart Cleanup software by Pcsmartcleanup.com is promoted as a system optimizer that can boost your machine's performance. PC users may install a trial version of PC Smart Cleanup along with free programs if they are not careful with freeware bundles and use the 'Express' or 'Standard' options. The PC Smart Cleanup software is packed as a 32-bit program, and it is designed to modify your registry and run on the Windows boot. You might be shown a pop-up window that welcomes you to purchase a license for PC Smart Cleanup for $29.99 from Store.ultraheal.com/c/shop?ID=15&ml=EN&cntr=US that is managed by Longrun Software Private Ltd. The same company is behind the UltraHeal Anti-Malware, Advanced AntiMalware Pro by Advancedantimalware.com and Advanced PC Doctor by Advancedpcdoctor.com. The trial version of PC Smart Cleanup may bring up false positives when you run a system scan and load Store.ultraheal.com in your default Internet browser. The PC Smart Cleanup software is deemed as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may flag temporary files and old Registry entries as critical errors that slow down your machine.
The PC Smart Cleanup is not deemed as one of the top system optimization tools on the market, and you may want to keep the $29.99 for the commercial license in your pocket. The technical support lines listed on Pcsmartcleanup.com, Ultraheal.com, Advancedantimalware.com, and Advancedpcdoctor.com appear to be managed by Advancedtechsupport.com, which was reported in scams back in 2014. You might want to note that all products purchased via Store.ultraheal.com are sold through a company named Asknet AG, and it is best that you read the Terms and Conditions for the acquisition and right of withdrawal published on Store.ultraheal.com/c/shop?ID=aamp01&ml=EN&curr=USD. Once you download the premium installer for PC Smart Cleanup, you can't download it again unless you pay for another license or allow Asknet AG to charge you an additional $10 for an "Extended Download Service," which allows you to download PC Smart Cleanup again if necessary. You might be offered to pay an additional fee that ranges from $150 to $300 and benefit from "Quick Standalone Premium Support on Third Party Products" provided by Advancedtechsupport.com. The extremely flexible pricing models, the vague services details and the questionable practices of Longrun Software Private Ltd. are used as arguments by cyber security vendors to flag the resources produced by the company as:
- Rogue.PCSmartCleanup
- PUA.Ultraheal!8.EC9D (cloud:Qjf9UXUaUBE)
- Suspicious_GEN.F47V0907
- Program.Unwanted.2197
- W32.Adware.Gen
