Every day we offer FREE licensed software you’d have to buy otherwise.
UnHackMe 12.60 was available as a giveaway on June 15, 2021!
UnHackMe was initially created as anti-rootkit software, but currently it has more features: scanning for "unwanted programs", checking for junk files, created by PUPs, scanning of Windows startup, services, drivers, testing Windows shortcuts, scanning for rootkits, testing the host files and DNS settings, testing all used files on Virustotal. The program uses its own database to detect what is better to remove from your PC. The important advantage of UnHackMe is that you can find an unknown malware by inspecting UnHackMe information.
Windows XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8/ 8.1/10 (x32/x64); 256 MB RAM; 40 MB of free disk space; Compatible with all known antiviral software
41.4 MB
Lifetime, no updates
$24.95
I downloaded it and it installed fine. Then when I ran the scan it came up with 63 unknown tasks in the windows directory and then it asks me to mark them as Harmless or Malicious. How am i supposed to know? That's what the program should do isn't it?

sleepy, Same problem here. Please advise. Is there a false positive or a real thread ? I would like to use this software. Is there a way?
Save | Cancel
sleepy,
You'd better choose a good antivirus.
AVG+AVAST cannot fix this false positive for more than a year.
They fixed the current version and start again with each new.
Support is useless.

It installed well. Thank you very much!

Pretty slow on a very fast PC. The scrollbar slider doesn't work -- it returns to the top when slid.
It reports a lot of known-good software as bad. Sometimes it complains about an empty folder.
Any suspects were checked and found good by Norton and Malwarebytes.
I don't see the point and will uninstall.

Had an older version of this. Uninstalled that one before installation of this version.
Always handy to have it sit there and work in the background.

Does "no updates" mean the databases it uses do not update ?
Save | Cancel
Richard Woodley,
AV database updates are for free.
You cannot upgrade to a new version or re-install.

This is a good rootkit detector software and I have been using it for more than 10 years now. It is a lifesaver when your system gets too slow in startup and general performance. But use it with caution, because in most cases user is expected to judge and decide on the executables to delete or retain n system. If you delete any necessary .exe then the related software/process goes for a toss.

Unhackme is available for free on the Greatis website. What is the difference between that and the GOTD version?
Save | Cancel
Pradip,
UnHackMe on the Greayis website is a free 30-day trial.
It is fully functional for 30-days. After that, it works, but you need to purchase a license to fix the issues.
GOTD version is fully functional. License is a lifetime. AV database updates are for free.
You cannot upgrade to a new version or re-install.
It is only for non-commercial usage.
No free tech support.

Yanna, same here, pretty much like the previous version given away.
This is one of the 'naggiest' apps given away on here, along with absolutely anything from Ashampoo.
When I had it installed it was only switched on and used as a scan once or twice a week, which never found anything dodgy I'm pleased to say.
