For many Windows users, installing software is a real problem. This is especially true for people who are poorly versed in computer technology and are not friendly with a foreign language. The fact is that seemingly free software, in fact, often turns out to be hung with additional commercial programs, toolbars for browsers and other not very pleasant appendages. Moreover, the creators of such software hide surprises in the installers so skillfully that even experienced users can miss something.
A small utility called Unchecky will come to our aid and help protect your computer from unwanted commercial, adware and spyware. At the same time, he knows how to do this even in automatic mode.
Once installed, Unchecky runs in the background and monitors all of your installations. If it detects any extraneous inclusion in the installer of the program you are installing, Unchecky will draw your attention to this. He can do this either automatically, by himself unchecking all the checkboxes from the elements you do not need, or simply by showing a warning window at the right time.
Currently Unchecky is in beta testing and its database may not contain the signatures of all commercial lotions found in nature. But the program has the ability to automatically update, so as the project develops, your protection will be more comprehensive and strong. The program works on all versions of Windows, starting from XP.
