Windows Utility Tool Removal Guide

Windows Utility Tool Removal Guide
Windows Utility Tool is a fake antivirus program that look like a legitimate antivirus such as Kaspersky Antivirus which can protect the computer from the attack of viruses, malwares or trojans. However, Windows Utility Tool cannot detect and remove any kind of virus, malware or trojan on the computer. When Windows Utility Tool is installed in the computer, it will start automatically when Windows boot and then will do a fake scan on the computer and will surely scare the user with pop ups which show that the computer has been infected by a lot of malwares, viruses and trojans. Do not believe any pop ups shown by Windows Utility Tool. Windows Utility Tool will recommend the user to purchase the full version of Windows Utility Tool in order to remove all the detected threats. Do not buy Windows Utility Tool as it can do nothing.

Windows Utility Tool can be removed by stop processes and kill all files with random name in the hard drives. The user also must remove the autorun setting added by Windows Utility Tool. These can be done by using Emsisoft HiJackFree.

Windows Utility Tool should be removed immediately!
