PC Fix Speed claims to be a system optimizer capable of increasing your computer’s speed and repairing computer errors. The truth is it is not a legitimate program but a scam. It gets inside a computer using various tricks, such as social engineering or bundling it with freeware. If you see an advertisement informing that your computer runs slower than it should and click on it, you might get infected with a trial version of PC Fix Speed. Once installed to your computer it will start scanning it and display all sorts of warnings with the only purpose to convince you into buying a full version of it.
A free version of this fake registry cleaner cannot be removed from Control Panel Add and Remove Programs list unless you purchase its complete version. No legitimate application would force a computer user to do so. Another point proving it is a scam is PC Fix Speed scan results. They are clearly exaggerated where some of the problems don’t even exist or are common for every system and do not hinder its work:
PC Fix Speed has found errors on your computer!
PC Fix Speed has also found several issues that may be slowing down your computer:
- Optimization tweaks available: 15
- Increase your disk space by: 125,2MB
Warning!!!
Your system registry contains errors.
Registry errors found: 54
We recommend removing errors by clicking on the Remove Now! button.
If you ask any of computer technicians, they will confirm that no system registry is completely free of errors and unnecessary entries. This is due to installing and uninstalling of programs. Yet these minor errors do not affect your computer‘s performance. Even if you buy a paid version of PC Fix Speed, most likely it will not eliminate the threats detected.
It is strongly recommended to remove PC Fix Speed if its activity is noticed. You may choose to use an automatic or manual removal method. Please note that manual removal should be applied only by an experienced computer user in order not to cause more damage. For an automatic PC Fix Speed removal download Spyhunter and perform a full system scan with it. The program will detect all of malicious entries and eliminate them. To avoid similar infections in the future do not click on suspicious advertisements, download software updates only from official websites, when installing any free applications always select custom installation option and remove checkboxes for any additional programs to be added by default.

@JMJ
JMJ, you are wrong DUMBASS.
@Jake – Sorry but I am not responsible for your computer and IT stupidity…
PC Fix Speed is a legitimate software and you can remove it simply by uninstaller provided with the application or from “Add/remove Program” utility in your Windows Control Panel. It will be removed completely and clearly.
JMJ : This is not necessary the case when some “affiliates” repack the software and use their own installers. In many cases, the uninstallers they provide are broken, so such cases might exist.
remove this pc fix speed from my computer ive tried wont let me my computer got messed uip when it downloaded I WANT IT^ GONE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pleas from my pce remove pc fix
Maureen: Uninstall it from control panel or scan with anti-malware programs.
I need only delete your program from my computer
Jose : PC fix speed does not belong to us, we warn people not to use it.
JMJ I called the folks here and explained all I want is their program off my computer. Ok they say just pay a one time fee of 150$$ and get rid of it. They recommended I purchase the 1 year subscription because itr was a much better deal and worth the money. I said so you write a Trojan Horse program to hop into my computer and arbitrarily run a scan when ever it decides to interfere with my time. They said sorry you feel that way and asked are you sure you do not want the program activated it is a very good deal. I said, so you know what you have done and yet refuse my request to remove your program from my computer. Who ever it was hung up on me as soon as I started to talk. Sp much for a valid company. So valid companies have the right to send out crap like this to tie up time on any and everyone’s computer, holding it hostage to exploit money from them. I think not! I hope Americans are still of the thought anyone interferes with our ability to function they should answer to the law of the land.
Ryan: we are unable to provide free personal pc support through phone for everyone (we have small team). If you need to remove it yourself, PC Fix Speed should uninstall from control panel. Paid support is performed by third party. There are cases when it fails, then install and run Revouninstaller (free) or anti-malware programs (MBAM, Spyhunter , hitman – some have free trial).
I uninstalled pC fix using Add/Remove programs. But my question is: How in the world did it get installed on my computer in the first place?
It started showing itself right after I installed an updated version of iTunes. So I’m guessing even that was not a legitimate program.
Does anyone know where I can get a safe and legitimate iTunes to reinstall, which iTunes itself is telling me to do.
If you downloaded ITunes not from Apple, then it might happen. Websites re-package common software quite often and bundle it with other programs.
this program caused a lot of problems on my computer I cant remove it with the uninstall program senior who play on line chess.please help. this is my past time
Thank you
