PUP (potentially unwanted program), PUA (potentially unwanted application) PC Accelerator potentially unwanted program Therefore, we strongly recommend that you uninstall all PUPs as soon as possible.

As with PC Accelerator, these apps are also useless.

In most cases, potentially unwanted programs do three things: 1) display intrusive advertisements 2) modify web browser options, and 3) gather various information. There is a high probability that it will install together with a number of other PUPs. Note also how PC Accelerator is installed.Īs mentioned above, it is likely to infiltrate systems without permission. For these reasons, you should uninstall the PC Accelerator PUP and certainly do NOT pay for the full version. Developers generate revenue by abusing users' trust. Criminals use this application to trick users into purchasing supposed full versions that are useless. The entire list of issues is false - your system is likely to be perfectly optimized and issue free.įurthermore, PC Accelerator provides no significant value. Since the 'free version' of PC Accelerator is not capable of these functions, however, users are encouraged to purchase the 'full version'. PC Accelerator often infiltrates systems without permission and provides no real value for regular users.Īfter running PC Accelerator and scanning the system, users are prompted with many 'issues' that must be resolved. Initially, this app may seem legitimate and useful, however, PC Accelerator is categorized as a potentially unwanted program (PUP).

This is happened for quite some time, currently on the latest Chrome build.Developers present PC Accelerator as a great tool to optimize and speed up your computer. GTX 1050M 4GB with the latest drivers (have also tried older drivers in the 390 range to no avail.)

I'm aware that quite a few people have issues with Hardware Acceleration and therefor disable it but quite a few sites I use require it (typically sites with heavy 3D or Google Earth Intergration) and it works perfectly when I enable Hardware Acceleration, however I then have to disable it and reboot Chrome every time I'm finished otherwise YouTube has huge issues - stutters, freezes etc etc. I've mentioned this on r/Chrome but that's a much smaller audience and I think it's still party related to Nvidia.Īnyone have issues with enabling Hardware Acceleration on Google Chrome and YouTube?
