The most Flexible and Sophisticated Media Player for Windows!

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.

UnHackMe eliminates various types of malicious software:

  • Search redirecting;
  • Popup ads;
  • Potentially unwanted programs (PUP);
  • Unwanted processes;
  • Slow browsing;
  • Rootkits;
  • Trojans;
  • Spyware;
  • Keyloggers.

System Requirements:

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

A follow-up to my last comment which frther explains the problem but not how GOTD created the problem by emailing that the program was available to download TODAY. I just read the above statement at the very top of the page stating UnHackMe was available Dec 22, yesterday. However, my email TODAY from GOTD contains the info that it is free TODAY!!! So it looks like someone screwed up in the email from GOTD and because of that the trial version is all I could download and it wiped out the previous lifetime version which was on my computer. Since GOTD seems to have screwed this up how are they/you going to fix it? NOW! A trial version is of very limited use and it is not what the email GOTD sent.

It was installed from the download page of UnHackMe, and in doing so it unstalled its previous GOTD version for which I had received a license key as part of the install process. This time there is no license key. There was no readme file with specfic install instructions. So my question is how do I get a license key so that this trial version does not self-destruct after the trial period. It said it is trial and I must pay or use the GOTD version. So where is that version located?

It installed easily. My problem was that it scanned my system and said it found a security problem and offered to remove it; however, it wouldn't let me see what the item was! There is no way I would allow a program to remove anything from my computer without my knowing what it is. SO I uninstalled this. Too bad.

So it states Licence details: Lifetime, NO updates
Does that mean No Antivirus updates or do I need to disable some other program update?

The scroll bar is unwieldy and jumping to the top if you press it in the middle of the window and want it to go further down.

I have installed previous GAotD versions of this and don't run it all the time but just have it to do a scan if anything concerns me. One thing I don't like is the lack of any explanation of why it doesn't like stuff. I ran this and it found two things it didn't like, but doesn't provide any sensible reason or a link to a reason for why they should not be liked. One thing was just a directory with some zero-length files. Also it only seems to have logs for when it changed things, so I can't see what it didn't like this morning without running the scan again.

So, I think worth installing as a scanner, unconvinced on ongoing monitoring if you are happy with your current AV solution.

P.S. It has a Program called "ImageDownloader" as "Probably Malicious" (which is a from GAotD!!! https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/all-image-downloader-pro/ - although I don't use it) and the directory ProgramData\win-net as "prohibited" - whatever that means, the internet isn't helpful on the subject.

Take this program in a hurry. I have it for a very very long time. Nothing is better than if for windows. It's even worth it if you have to pay for it, as I did. Customer services is also very, very good. Don't miss this opportunity.

All these cleanings must be done after the FACT, so what is the point of cleaning it. The malware must be known to this software to remove it, if it is not known or it is a new malware, this software is useless.

I have used this program many times over the years and it was always safe and effective, it also helps get rid of nuisance programs running in the background. I

On Windows 11, it just looks too dangerous, uninstalled

Jim, What does "looks too dangerous" mean? In what way?

Reply   |   Comment by David Bookbinder  –  Last year  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+3)

Jim, I agree. Windows 11 looks dangerous

Reply   |   Comment by MrAnderson  –  Last year  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (-2)

David Bookbinder, I'd suspect it's the plethora of apparent detections almost all of which if not all are benign, which could lead to killing something necessary.

Reply   |   Comment by TK  –  Last year  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+3)

Jim, I think you are referring to the system files Win 11 uses and that UnhackMe marks them as malicious? Therefore I believe that UnhackMe is not ready for Win 11 yet, hence why only Win 10 and lower system requirements.

I have the previous version that was also a Giveaway of the Day. If I were to install this, should I uninstall my current version first or can I simply install it and let it update itself so to speak?

Andre Rodrigs, I just installed it over the top of the previous version and it kept the settings.

Andre Rodrigs, Usually, it's best to uninstall the previous version.

I know the system requirements say Windows XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8/ 8.1/10 (x32/x64) but I tried this on a Windows 11 machine and it marked vital system files as being malicious, so its either not Win 11 compatible (doesn't claim to be) or the software isn't so good. Can't decide for sure but think its a compatibility issue ... You decide.

This program is just weird. The whole two windows thing it does is confusing, Then I find it needs constant attention. I installed last time and kept it for a week until it got on my nerves so bad I had to uninstall. It never found anything but the constant demands for attention was like having a two year old around.

Will, You could turn off the monitoring feature. Then the program won't run in the background nor pop up anything. It will run only when you launch it, do its job, then you can exit the program until next time.

Reply   |   Comment by Ray  –  Last year  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+30)

Ray, so what's the point of keeping it? Originally when it was just a rootkit clean up tool it had some utility but since it tries to now widen its operation and customer base to include PUP and other products detections it has become a mess. So no good as an anti-rootkit tool and no use as a generic badware monitoring tool as it just requires too much attention to keep it satisfied.

I have some test software that a normal AV considers unwanted and deletes it as soon as it discovers it. Luckily my AV gives me the possibility to prohibit the AV to check the folders that contain that test software. As far as I can see, UnHackMe does not has that option. So I will refrain from using it.

Reply   |   Comment by krypteller  –  Last year  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+19)

krypteller, there is an option to mark files as being false positives which in theory should exclude them from future scans.

Reply   |   Comment by Marc K  –  Last year  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+19)

Marc K, and when is the developer going to take all those millions of false positive reports from end users and apply them to fresh installs ? It is a waste of effort by end users each time it is installed. One wants expert software or software that claims to be a type of expert software to have more expertise than the end users and not have to be taught on every fresh installation what is a false positive and what is not a true PUP... Also one should not have to exclude programs from future scans as they may have become infected in the mean time... excluding false positive detections is a security vulnerability as is the concept of excluding folders from anti-malware scanning.... malware can detect the anti-malware in use, and then search the settings for that anti-malware for the lists of scan exclusion and then masquerade as one of excluded programs that get a free pass because of the anti-malwares developer incompetence.
