Super Cleanup

Posted: May 16, 2018

The Super Cleanup is a PC optimization utility published by Jawego Partners LLC. The Super Cleanup is available for download on multiple software repositories, as well as on the official website found at Supercleanup.com. While this application is downloadable free of charge, users who opt to give it a try might soon find out that using this program is not free entirely. The installation file used to download the Super Cleanup only installs a trial version, which provides users with the ability to scan their PCs to allow the Super Cleanup generate a report regarding the system's health, optimization potential, and other options that could enhance the PC's performance. However, to apply any of the pending optimizations and fixes, the user of the Super Cleanup will be asked to purchase the full product.

Security researchers state that the Super Cleanup is not an unsafe application to use and it can, in fact, apply some optimizations and fixes when the full product is purchased. However, we advise against paying for this application since it has been tagged as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by multiple anti-virus product vendors. While this tool is somewhat helpful, there are better and free alternatives available online, which will not try to trick you into thinking that you are downloading a free product.

Users who do not pay for the Super Cleanup's full version and do not remove the trial version are likely to end up seeing regular reminders and notifications that there are pending fixes and optimizations. Thankfully, these actions are not corrupted, but they could be rather tedious and annoying so that the advice is to take care of the Super Cleanup's removal as soon as possible. This task can be completed both manually or with the use of an up-to-date PC security software suite.
