Windows XP Recovery is a dangerous scamware which will start asking you to pay for its hard drive fixing services as soon as it will get inside your machine.
Though it may look trustworthy and legitimate computer’s optimization tool, this program only mimics its work because it has no database. It is set to start as soon as PC becomes active, so you will need a reputable anti-malware for its removal. Please don’t waste your time and get rid of Windows XP Recovery once you notice it asking you to launch it in Safe Mode.
This program has been designed to display fake Safe Mode on your desktop and then announce invented hard drive issues to reach the only objective – deceive you and rip you off eventually! Save your money and use only reputable tools for removal of Windows XP Recovery .
This program, categorized as fake defragmenter, comes from the same family as Windows Vista Recovery and Windows XP Recovery. Just like all these versions released by scammers, fake defragmenter will act identically: it will start appearing with its fake hard disk errors as soon as PC is active and then will offer purchasing ‘licensed’ version. Based on invented information about ‘hard drive errors’ found, these pop-ups interrupt its victims every time they start browsing the web.

Although it is possible to manually remove Windows XP Recovery, such activity can permanently damage your system if any mistakes are made in the process, as advanced spyware parasites are able to automatically repair themselves if not completely removed. Thus, manual spyware removal is recommended for experienced users only, such as IT specialists or highly qualified system administrators. For other users, we recommend malware and spyware removal applications.
