WindowsDisk is another member of fake defragmenters’ family.
It seems like only its GUI is the main difference if we compare it and other variants released earlier, like Windows Disk, Memory Optimizer,Disk Helper or Disk Optimizer. Windows Disk uses identical ways of infiltration based on Trojan bundled fake online pop-up ads and scanners. Besides, malware seeks the same commercial goals, so it displays the same alerts reporting invented hard disk problems and offering their removal. Of course, this help is not for free! As you have already realized, Windows Disk is a fake defragmenter that should be uninstalled before it downloads more viruses inside your machine and gives your money for scammers.
Though Windows Disk is presented as a powerful tool capable of eliminating any hard disk problem, in reality it only poses to be searching your machine for problems. This program is skillfully designed to reach the system without your permission asked and additionally start continuous alerts about numerous hard disk problems detected. Windows Disk does not even ask your permission when it tries to get inside the machine – if you don’t have a real time protection on your machine, it may come out of nowhere with a help of Trojans.
Please, never fall into believing the above-mentioned alerts displayed by Windows Disk. All its messages and scanners are fake, so ignoring them would be the best your decision. Besides, don’t help for scammers to fulfill their commercial goals and never purchase Windows Disk. You will end up with no money, more viruses on your computer and even your credit card information stolen. So, once you notice, remove Windows Disk rogue anti-spyware!
