Windows 7 Fix - How to remove

Windows 7 Fix is another member of fake defragmenter family released in the beginning of July. Created to swindle the money from trustful PC users, this threat gets into the targeted system similarly to other its version Windows XP Fix and Windows Vista Fix: it uses Trojans that come inside through security vulnerabilities found. That means that if you don’t have a licensed anti-virus and anti-spyware installed, you are in a great danger of this threat. Windows 7 Fix looks like its forerunners but infects only those machines that have Windows 7 OS running. To avoid this cyber threat or remove it from your computer, use Spyhunter anti-spyware which will eliminate infected files.

Once the trial version of Windows 7 Fix gets inside, it additionally makes some unnoticeable changes to your computer: it deletes shortcuts found in various locations and also hides files and folders in order to make you really believe that something is wrong with your hard drive. By adding some Registry keys of its own, Windows 7 Fix configures your machine to launch its executable after each system startup and then starts reporting numerous hard drive errors:

Windows 7 Fix will also show itself through a hard drive scan that pops up without any permission asked.
