Can't Uninstall PC Accelerate On My PC. Any Help?

Gogz · 2022-12-08T12:26:26+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I can't seem to find it anywhere, it came alongside a trojan horse virus the other day and that's when I subscribed to Bitdefender, the virus seems to be gone, but PC accelerate still there, I tried looking for it in Control Panel and in doing a system scan and a quick scan from Bitdefender but it's not showing up at all and it keeps popping up whenever I startup my laptop, and I looked for it in apps in settings.

any help is much appreciated.

Hello.

PC Accelerate and PC Accelerate Pro are both considered as PUA/PUP (Potentially Unwanted Application / Potentially Unwanted Program).

First, you should do a SYSTEM SCAN on your PC and clean the infections with the Bitdefender program, by following these steps:
