Issue: How to Uninstall Smart System Care?

I did not install Smart System Care tool. However, when I woke up my laptop from sleep this morning, this program launched its scanner and scanned my PC without my both my request and permission. Besides, I found my web browser showing “Ads by Smart System Care.” I ran a scan with my anti-virus, but it did not find anything. Isn’t Smart System Care a virus? Anyway, could you help me to uninstall it please?

Solved Answer

While Smart System Care by AyaN might cause several unwanted activities on users' computers, it is not a virus.[1] It can not cause any harm to the operating system nor data stored on it. However, powerful anti-malware programs usually recognize it as a potentially unwanted program (PUP)[2]. Thus, many people start looking for ways how to uninstall Smart System Care and get rid of the nuisance.

Computer security experts found out that Smart System Care developers use deceptive methods to distribute the rogue PC optimization tool. It has been found that it spreads bundled with third-party programs[3] as a default attachment disguised under Quick/Basic installation method. Besides, this program raises suspicions for implementing other suspicious activities, including:

  • The usage of tracking cookies;
  • The distribution of browsing-related data with other third-parties;
  • Displaying third-party ads;
  • Browser’s redirects to third-party domains.

Therefore, although the Smart System Care app is represented as a tool for the PC's optimization, detection/removal of cyber threats, registry problems, software issues, and other malfunctions, it’s yet another questionable tool that displays fictitious scan results and pretends to be improving system's performance while, in reality, it might result in the opposite effect.

Those who get tricked by bogus scan results and decide to proceed using the program to fix their machines, they are prompted to pay for the licensed version, which renews yearly. However, Smart System Care scan results should not be trusted. It has been found that it picks random registry entries[4] and indicates them as damaged.

Access geo-restricted video content with a VPN

Private Internet Access is a VPN that can prevent your Internet Service Provider, the government, and third-parties from tracking your online and allow you to stay completely anonymous. The software provides dedicated servers for torrenting and streaming, ensuring optimal performance and not slowing you down. You can also bypass geo-restrictions and view such services as Netflix, BBC, Disney+, and other popular streaming services without limitations, regardless of where you are.

Don’t pay ransomware authors – use alternative data recovery options

Malware attacks, particularly ransomware, are by far the biggest danger to your pictures, videos, work, or school files. Since cybercriminals use a robust encryption algorithm to lock data, it can no longer be used until a ransom in bitcoin is paid. Instead of paying hackers, you should first try to use alternative recovery methods that could help you to retrieve at least some portion of the lost data. Otherwise, you could also lose your money, along with the files. One of the best tools that could restore at least some of the encrypted files –  Data Recovery Pro.
