Yet Another Cleaner

by: Chris Page on April 30, 2014

Yet Another Cleaner scans your PC and purges it of annoying or dangerous malware, adware, cookies, and browser plug-ins. It also checks and optimizes the Registry for faster startups and smoother overall operation, and frees storage space by removing seldom-used applications.

Easy to use: After a quick installation, Yet Another Cleaner assesses the health of your PC and then lets you fix detected issues with a single click. The straightforward menu enables you to do quick or deep cleans, evaluate the safety of your Web browser plug-ins, and optimize the Registry, as well as remove applications that take up unwanted space -- all this always with minimal user intervention.

Fast operation: Both scans and repairs are very rapid; no need to go make a cup of coffee because you don't have to wait for the scan to finish.

Registry interference: Diagnostic software can interfere substantially with your system Registry, often with negative results. We suggest sticking to the quicker and superficial cleaning options and meddle as little as possible with your system.

Yet Another Cleaner quickly and effectively scans and fixes your PC, protecting it from a wide range of threats, while requiring but few clicks. We recommend it especially to less-experienced users who do not want to get into the technical details of PC cleaning and optimization.

"Stable + fast + safe + multifunctional = worthy using"

July 14, 2014   |   By JustinBiebersucks

Version: Yet Another Cleaner 4.7.25

Pros

I tried many anti-virus programs on my computer. This one ain't the best, but is it the one I paid the least. Honestly speaking, I never spend a cent on it. I was so surprised that a free app can provide so many functions, and I hope it can last longer.

Cons

Some functions are useless, but most are very practical.

Summary

Worthy using

"This program helps a lot"

July 10, 2014   |   By Michele_Martina

Version: Yet Another Cleaner 4.7.25

Pros

Once I install a program called SpyHunter. This one is just a piece of garbage. It laid a trap for me! After installation, my firewall monitors it keeps transmitting data to the Internet. It generates fake detection report and stays in my computer! Thank god, I got yac to deal with this rogue ware! Yac eliminates SpyHunter only in a few minutes!

Cons

SpyHunter is made for destruction!

Summary

I will recommend yac to more people.

"This current version is even more excellent"

July 10, 2014   |   By Dungeon_warriors

Version: Yet Another Cleaner 4.7.25

Pros

With using this cute utility for some time, I became a loyal user of it. Also, I heard it has obtained the certificate of OPSWAT. I'm sure it will be more popular as mainstream antivirus software.

Cons

None I think

Summary

Yak is a proper choice for rookie use. If you are a professional user, I recommend avast.

"Easy come easy go"

June 04, 2014   |   By JustinBiebersucks

Version: Yet Another Cleaner 4.4.32

Pros

Recently, I found many articles claiming that yac is easy to install but heard to uninstall. Therefore, I tried to install and uninstall this program for several times. All have been done smoothly. Maybe it is not perfect, but it is absolutely useful and safe.

Cons

Some functions are duplicated with those provide by the OS

Summary

Easy come easy go.

"Investigate first"

May 29, 2014   |   By jugular2

Version: Yet Another Cleaner 4.4.32

Pros

On the surface, seems helpful

Cons

Below the surface, perhaps reason to worry

Summary

When I installed the program, it singled out a virus and trojan that was not picked up by AVAST or Malwarebytes, wich was to its favor; I liked the friendly program script, too. But a strange window kept appearing when YAC was open, instructing that I needed Microsoft Frontpage to perform some function. I looked around, now suspicious about the safety of the program, and the consensus was mixed. But there were enough sites warning that YAC was malware, although I believe there is no virus element to YAC - as some sites have labeled it, YAC may be adware or "scareware." I decided to get rid of it, and REVO Uninstaller failed to eliminate YAC completely, which was surprising. When I tried YAC's own uninstaller, I kept getting the "Microsoft Frontpage" message referred to earlier. (Some sites warn about YAC's uninstallation difficulty.) I finally used System Restore, which still left a big "iSafe" directory; I-deleted that manually.

I'm not saying this is a useless program (although I did feel uncomfortable about all the problems it reported after a scan; I did not feel like I could trust many of the findings), but there may be a sneaky aspect to it. You may want to do some homework, by searching for "Remove YAC - Yet Another Cleaner," and get more of an idea on YAC's pros and cons for yourself.

"More and more people like and use it"

May 25, 2014   |   By Dungeon_warriors

Version: Yet Another Cleaner 4.4.46

Pros

A school mate from Brazil told me that YAC is a useful utility developed by a company from his country. Certainly I know what it is, so we began to discuss on this program. He said every Brazilian is proud of YAC, because it is useful, helpful and free. In my opinion, this program had a space for improvement.

Cons

I think YAC can be better.

Summary

YAC is a good program. However, it has long way to go to become a major brand antivirus software.
