Win Defrag is a rogue computer optimization and defragmentation program from the same family as Win HDD. This scareware wants to scare you into thinking that your computer has some problems and issues. Win Defrag pretends to scan your hard drives and system memory for various errors. Then it states that you need to use the defragment tool to fix supposedly found errors. It fixes some errors for free and then prompts to pay for a full version of the program to fix other programs as well. Please do not fall victim to this rogue program and remove Win Defrag from your computer upon detection. Please use the removal instructions below.
Win Defrag enters the system without user permission and in order to protect itself attempts to disable legit antimalware software found. Actually, it blocks nearly all programs on the computer. Just run a program several times and it will eventually work. Compromised computer becomes completely taken over by this fake program in the result of such actions and Win Defrag begins the campaign it was designed to. Win Defrag will be configured to launch at startup, so be sure it will greatly affect your computer by running fake scanners and pop-up ads or notifications that will annoy you. Some of the fake errors read:
