Win Tune Pro

You might think that Win Tune Pro is a good application that can optimize your system’s performance, but we are here to tell you that it is far from the truth. Our security experts say that this application is a potentially unwanted program, and it means that the application may exhibit particular features that can be considered annoying or potentially harmful. It is highly doubtful that the program lives up to its promises, so it would be for the best to remove Win Tune Pro if you want to avoid potential security issues. Please scroll to the end of this description for manual removal instructions, and do not forget to get yourself a licensed antispyware tool to deal with this issue.

Such programs are quite often rather ambiguous because it is hard to say they are legitimate or not. Technically, you should be able to download Win Tune Pro from wintunepro.com, as the program is promoted as your typical PC optimizer. However, we believe it is very rather that users would download the application willingly. In fact, when it comes to potentially unwanted applications, it is far more likely that they come unexpectedly, bundled with a list of other freeware applications.

According to our tests, Win Tune Pro usually gets dropped by a third-party installer that downloads bundled updates. This implies that you have more than just one unwanted application, and that might be the reason your computer is not as fast as before. The point is that such programs seldom travel solo, and it would be a good idea to run a full system scan to check your current system status.

Although we program we are dealing with here is not a reliable optimization tool, it does not go as far as lying about the test results. The program does not provide you with fake results, but it may have a tendency to dramatize whatever you see, urging you to solve one error of another. For instance, it would not be surprising if the program showed the following notification about your browser security:

Attention: Your browser may be infected with Malware!
Whoa!
Are you sure you want to continue?
Your [browser name] may be risky to continue using. Other internet browsers on your PC may be infected as well. Call 1800-303-8110 immediately for assistance on how to remove potential malware. The call is toll free 24/7.

Now, disregarding whether the call is really toll-free, it is an obvious scam because the application is far more interested in making money than improving your computer’s performance. That should be enough to convince to delete it, but if you need more facts, we are ready to provide them.

The company that stands behind this application specializes in online marketing, so its main purpose is to make a financial profit. What’s more, decent programs always come with the Privacy Policy, End User License Agreement, and Terms of Service. Unfortunately, we were not able to find any of these documents either on the official website or while installing the program. And users should be able to go through such documents at least on the installation wizard (this is usually the part where most of the users click “I Agree” without even bothering to read the section).

Win Tune Pro could also be associated with other potentially unwanted programs, which shows that the developers of this application are trying to siege users via multiple fronts. You should not succumb to this attack. The sooner you react, the better, and we are here to assist you.

Usually, it is possible to remove a program via Control Panel. You can actually delete this application like that too, but keep in mind that if you try uninstalling it while the program is still running, the uninstaller will not close the program, it will display errors, and some of the files will be left on your system. Therefore, to get rid of this program, close it first and then access Control Panel.

We will also leave a list of files you need to delete, just in case the Control Panel removal does not work properly. On top of that, do not forget to scan your computer with a security tool of your choice. You have to make sure you do everything you can to protect your PC from harm.
