What is Master Pc Cleaner?
Master Pc Cleaner is one of those questionable supposed PC optimizers that promise you faster PC performance and boot-up, but the truth is that you will never really see your PC performing any better. The Windows Registry fixes and temporary file removals this software may apply have not too much to do with your computer's overall performance. Well, may be there is a psychological factor here that after using such software, you would feel your computer boosted just simply in your mind or as a way of perception. Our malware experts at anti-spyware-101.com have found that this application is yet another potentially unwanted program (PUP) very similar to AdvanceSystemCare, SystemKeeperPro, and SystemBoosterPro, which all claim to be PC optimizers. We cannot say that this PUP means any direct and dangerous threat to your system but its free version is definitely useless because it may just display made-up scan results to push you to buy the full version to be able to fix these supposed errors. Since this PUP may enter your system along with other PUPs or even malware infections, we suggest that you remove Master Pc Cleaner as soon as possible.
Where does Master Pc Cleaner come from?
In all fairness, you can officially download the installer of this PUP from its promotional webpage, masterpccleaner.com. This is your usual nicely designed and professional-looking page, very similar to other PC cleaners and optimizers in fact. You can download this PUP even without alerting your security software if one is installed on your PC. However, before you download any software, it is advisable to always run a web search to find out more about it. For example, in this case, you could find articles right on the first results page leading to malware hunter pages that explain why you should delete Master Pc Cleaner from your PC. This could give you a clue whether it is worth downloading your targeted software or not.
But the main issue here is that this PUP may also be distributed in questionable ways, such as via freeware bundles. This distribution method has become a widely used one among schemers since they can infect unsuspecting users with multiple PUPs and malicious threats at the same time. This is why it is essential that you always make sure you know what your bundle contains before you install it. You should always choose the custom or advanced option because in most installers this is the only way to see what kind of browser setting changes and additional tools will be installed by default unless you decide to opt out. You can usually download such bundles when you download free or cracked programs from suspicious torrent and other P2P sites, when you click on unreliable third-party advertisements, or when your PC is infected with malware. If you want to make sure that your computer is safe for you to use, we advise you to use a proper online malware scanner to be able to find all other possibly harmful programs and settings after you delete Master Pc Cleaner.

Such a PUP can also use misleading tactics like showing your fake scan results with hundreds or even thousands of supposed system errors and issues so that you would feel compelled to buy the full version. Obviously, you cannot use any fixing or any other features with the free version, which is available for download from its official page. Strangely enough, you cannot even seem to be able to buy the full version through the website; first, you have to use the free version and once you want to apply fixes, you will be prompted to purchase the full version to be able to continue.
