Free Windows adware remover
ZHPCleaner is a free adware remover for Windows by Nicolas Coolman that eliminates unwanted toolbars and content in the same way as Ultra Adware Killer and AdwCleaner. It also prevents pop-ups and changes to your homepage from malicious programs. You can detect malware on your browser or stop hijackers from taking over your browsing.
When you install ZHPCleaner, first run a scan to detect issues that are already present. After that, keep it running in the background to prevent additional occurrences. There’s also a reporting tool to analyze the findings.
The interface is clean and easy to use, with three main tabs. The Scanner runs through your system to see if it can find any malware. With the Repair tool, you can fix damages to your operating system. Finally, run Report to see complete details of what ZHPCleaner has found.
Clean interface
Deep as the registry
While ZHPCleaner deals with adware on the surface with unwanted toolbars, pop-ups, and other malware, it also digs a little deeper. It’ll sweep through components in your registry to ensure that there’s nothing hidden in your PC’s resources. The program will also check your directories and any files you can’t find yourself.
Detailed reports
When you run an anti-malware program, it helps to see what it actually removed in case there was something you wanted to keep. Furthermore, you can measure ZHPCleaner’s performance and not blindly trust that it’s doing its job. You can scan several report views with thorough scan details.
Restore changes
If ZHPCleaner made any changes to your operating system that you’re not happy with, you can quickly reverse it. You can also restore Windows to a previous state that was more stable. Just click on the Restore button or cancel any program changes.
Take back your computer
ZHPCleaner may not be the ultimate anti-malware program, but it’s free and it does its job efficiently. The main concern is that it’s from a relatively unknown source, so there’s always some risk involved, and even the developer recommends using one of the top anti-malware programs for better performance.
