WinThruster: what is this program and is it worth it to install on a computer?

The interest of many users in programs that specialize in optimizing computer systems is sometimes artificially heated. They offer to install to speed up the computer, and quite obtrusively. Special interest in its time caused the program WinThruster. What is this application, now and see. At the same time, we'll figure out whether it really is a necessary tool for servicing the system and how to remove it if necessary.

Program WinThruster: what is this application for?

If you look at the official description posted on the Internet, the WinThruster application is positioned as a unique tool that allows you to accelerate the work when the system boots up and in the process of its operation, so that other programs are far away.

Why is it that the program is "positioned" rather than "is" an optimizer? The answer to this question will become clear if you consider all aspects of the WinThruster program. What kind of application is it and what are its main functions, and will be shown later.

Declared functional set

As for the basic functionality, it is stated that the program starts with the operating system and immediately after a full load performs a scan for the functioning of unnecessary processes.

This analyzes the registry entries and hard disks, and then fixes errors or problems in the background. When working with disks WinThruster (full version) allows you to find and delete garbage files and delete temporary objects that are not used after the completion of some application.

The program also has an autoload control section, in which you can disable some processes that are started when Windows starts. In general, judging by the official description, we seem to have a simple optimizer. But is it really so?

WinThruster activation: problems with keys, payment and additional software

Then the problems begin. The program after installation requires activation (for WinThruster the key can only be purchased). In this case, you need to specify the method of payment (usually a bank card), and withdrawals will happen automatically. It seems to be no problem, and the amount by today's standards is scanty.

But! For WinThruster, the license key operates at best only one year. After that, as evidenced by numerous user reviews, the program automatically renews the license and - attention! - writes off money from the card specified at the first registration, by the automatic machine.

No less a problem, according to many users, is that after the system is reinstalled for WinThruster, the license key has to be bought anew, because the application issues a message that the given key is already used (although in fact it belongs to the same owner) .

Finally, with the first installation, the application adds a huge number of its own entries to the registry and installs a bunch of unnecessary applications like WeatherBug in the background. And all of them are in autoload, consume system resources, and disabling them is not always possible.

App reviews

This is the WinThruster application. What kind of program is that, probably, many already understood. And now a few more testimonials from those who tried it in practice. Judging by what is written on the Internet, there are many more problems. All right, it would only be a requirement of the WinThruster key program or an automatic license renewal with the withdrawal of money. So no - even after the removal of the application money continues to be written off, not to mention the fact that there are even software and physical disruptions.

For example, it is not uncommon for a program to lock the mouse for the most obvious reasons, delete the system files, inform you later that you need to restore, and finally a blue screen appears with a notification of the manually launched crash, etc.

How to remove WinThruster from a computer?

But how do you uninstall the application if the system reports that its uninstallation is impossible? Doing a manual search for all items in the form of files or registry keys - this is too long. In addition, it is not always possible to determine that the found element belongs to the WinThruster package.

In this case, it's better to immediately use utilities like iObit Uninstaller or Revo Uninstaller, which perform a powerful scan and delete all residual elements, having previously completed the active services and package services in the Task Manager, and when the standard uninstaller starts, make sure that the Remove option is enabled.

After this, it is advisable to immediately check the system with some program like AdwCleaner (WinThruster antiviruses as a potentially dangerous application do not determine, because it has the status of a trusted one).

After the end of all manipulations, you need to use a proven optimizer, for example CCleaner, and, as they say, bring the system to mind.

Conclusion

As you can already understand, the software product WinThruster should not be installed on the computer in any case. Not only that there may be problems in the system, so you can always lose money! It is desirable to remove this package using special utilities in safe mode, since manual search can be very difficult. Finally, it is worthwhile immediately to pay attention to the situation when initially when you visit Internet resources, a proposal appears for installing this program. It means only that some advertising component has already penetrated into the system. It is better to take the scan by the AdwCleaner utility, without waiting for it to be fully activated (installation can also be done in the background when the user has no idea about it).
