Do you know what My Sys Mechanic is?
If you trust that your operating system will start running faster with the help of My Sys Mechanic, you are bound to be disappointed. This potentially unwanted program (PUP) finds and removes components that are insignificant, and whose elimination will not bring you the results you expect. None of this would mean a whole lot; however, the removal of these insignificant elements is not free. Because the program requires you to pay money, our research team feels the obligation to introduce you to it. It is notable that this PUP is identical to Power Speedup 2018, Power Cleaner 2018, Win Speedup 2018, and quite a few other applications that not only look the same but also offer the same kinds of useless services. We suggest eliminating them all, but, in this report, we focus on deleting My Sys Mechanic.
If you did not download My Sys Mechanic from orbitpcmechanic.com, you must have downloaded it using a bundled downloader, along with other programs. Since we cannot predict whether or not these programs are malicious, we suggest installing a malware scanner. This tool will examine your operating system and introduce you to the threats that require removal. While the threats that exist on your PC could have been placed anywhere, we know that the PUP is found in an original folder (“My Sys Mechanic for [your PC name]”) under %PROGRAMFILES% or %PROGRAMFILES(x86)%. You can remove it from the folder, or you can uninstall it using the step-by-step guide below you can find below. We suggest deleting the PUP even if you have paid 23.95 EUR for its services already. Of course, before you eliminate the program, you should try to get a refund. Allegedly, you have 60 days to request it.
My Sys Mechanic is meant to scan the operating system for “Malware/PUP Threats” and “Startup/Uninstall and User Items” to find things that are slowing it down. Are the scanner results bogus? They are not, which is the main reason the program is not classified as a threat that requires urgent removal. Should the results be taken seriously? When it comes to malware, they should not, and if you want to figure out if or not you actually need to delete malicious threats, we suggest relying on a legitimate malware scanner. When it comes to other “items,” the chances are that you can eliminate them yourself, for example, by erasing files in the %TEMP% folder. Needless to say, if you have never cleaned this folder, you might discover thousands of items inside, and you could actually free up some space by removing them. That being said, you do not need to pay for any program to get that done. The same goes with browsing history, which you also can delete all on your own, without spending a single penny.

PUPs are pretty much harmless, but there are plenty of much more dangerous programs out there, and you want a reliable security system to keep you safe.
