System Healer virus removal guide

System Healer is a potentially unwanted application (PUA) currently spread actively in the Internet. It is advertised as some helpful tool that will supposedly check your PC and will fix all errors found. The slogan for this program is as follows – “System Healer is ready to check your PC! Help your PC stay clean, healthy & strong“. However, in reality this application has been designed specifically to rip you off and force you into paying money in favor of its developers.

It would be indeed an excellent solution if System Healer could fix real errors and bugs. But the problem is that it invents such fake problems and presents them as real during its fictitious scanning which, by the way, lasts for just a few seconds. Then, once these faulty errors are supposedly detected and reported, the program leads users to the fraudulent payment processing page and forces them to make a payment for its registration number.

Furthermore, while your PC is running, System Healer may additionally bother you with its so-called Healer Console alerts with the following content:

The software has not been designed to assist users in making their PCs work faster. Removing System Healer can be done manually and absolutely for free as explained in this video guide:

On the other hand, the fact that System Healer got installed into your system probably means that the PC is also infected with some other malicious programs.
