Windows StartUp Repair is described as a rogue defragmenter. Its purpose is to interrupt your ability to view files and increase your PC’s vulnerability. Users should not be misguided by its name – Windows StartUp Repair has nothing to do with Windows itself and is not included in its Recovery Environment. Researchers have reported that no error-detection features are found in the tool.
Windows StartUp Repair is similar to other System Repair devices such as Windows Tool, SmartDefragmenter, and WinScan.
Windows StartUp Installation Technique
Windows StartUp’s installation is usually associated with a Trojan infiltration or a fake Microsoft Security Essentials Alert, as researchers have already reported. Users usually view various fake update alerts or codecs before the rogue tool is installed. Once it is running on the affected computer, different error messages will start appearing. Users should not trust any of the displayed errors. Instead, they are advised to uninstall the program with the help of anti-malware software. Note that Windows StartUp may change your registry keys, thus making the manual removal virtually impossible, unless the victim is a security professional.
Windows StartUp Removal
As already mentioned, the rogue repair tool may be the cause of numerous alterations in the registry. Moreover, the longer time it spends on a computer, the more vulnerable the latter becomes. That is why its immediate removal is recommended by security specialists. To do so, it’s best if a valid AV program is used.
