ProtectOne Removal GuideProtectOne Removal Guide

ProtectOne Removal Guide
ProtectOne is a fake antivirus program that will configure itself to start automatically when Windows boot. Then ProtectOne will continuously show pop ups to state that the computer has been infected by malwares, viruses or trojans. ProtectOne will urge the user to purchase the full version of ProtectOne by repeatedly showing the pop ups. ProtectOne cannot detect and remove any kind of virus, trojan or malware. Do not ever purchase ProtectOne.

ProtectOne can be removed by stopping the processes (protectonerun.exe, protectone.exe, setup_protectone.exe) and remove the files by using Emsisoft HiJackFree. Then, the user should remove the autorun setting of ProtectOne by removing the registry entries stated in the removal guide below.

ProtectOne should be removed immediately!
