Malwarebytes has just released AdwCleaner 7.4, which comes with a very useful new feature.

Malwarebytes has just released AdwCleaner 7.4, which is a very useful new feature that can detect and delete annoying software preinstalled on the system (bloatware). In fact, bloatware is often added by device manufacturers to generate additional revenue. In some cases, bloatware takes up a lot of system resources and makes users experience many difficulties in processing, because these software cannot be deleted in the usual way.

Bloatware are software preinstalled by the manufacturer on the device

More specifically, when you purchase any hardware product, the device will often come with some pre-installed software (which is less depending on the manufacturer) from a third party, such as copies. trial of an antivirus tool, backup software, DVD burning software, multimedia player, etc. When third-party software developers pay equipment manufacturers for their software to contribute On the hardware product in the form of bloatware, the manufacturer can also rely on it to reduce the price of hardware, while maintaining a competitive advantage in the market.

However, the problem is that these pre-installed programs, in many cases, are the factors that slow down the computer, occupy the screen display area, run underground in the background, wasting system resources. , as well as taking up a lot of memory storage space.

Understanding the difficulties users have encountered with bloatware, on this newly released version of AdwCleaner 7.4, Malwarebytes has paid special attention to providing a tool that simplifies the detection process. and remove bloatware on newer PC and laptop devices.

In some early tests, this new feature of AdwCleaner 7.4 was quite effective for practical use, especially in detecting and identifying hidden bloatware in the system. Some common examples of hidden software preinstalled on laptops that AdwCleaner 7.4 discovered include:

  1. Lenovo EasyCamera
  2. LenovoMControll
  3. LenovoUtility
  4. AcerPowerManagement
  5. AcerUpdater
  6. PackardBellPowerManagement

In fact, some pre-installed software can be tightly integrated into the hardware, so Malwarebytes will try to create a restore point on the restore point before officially deleting the software. However, in many real tests, restore points were not automatically created when experts tested the deletion feature, perhaps Malwarebytes will have to fix this 'problem' soon in the upcoming updates.

After deleting the bloatware but thinking about it, you can still restore the bloatware from the "Preinstalled software" tab in the Quarantine section.
