What is Fashion Life?

Fashion Life is a rather unique adware program that is set to work as gadget for Windows 7 and Vista. Our researchers say that it may display unreliable advertisements so you should remove it from your computer as soon as the opportunity arises. Nevertheless, we also want to make clear that it may show advertisements not only on the aforementioned operating systems, but on Windows 8 and 10 as well. Only the gadget itself will not appear on the desktop. For the most part, this gadget is set to promote certain fashion-related websites, but it may also be prone to display commercial advertisements on your browser. Therefore, this program is quite annoying and you might want to get rid of it. test test test

Where does Fashion Life come from?

This program’s origins are shady to say the least. There is no information about the company that released it whatsoever. Nevertheless, it has a dedicated promotional and download website at Fashionlifeapp.info. Research shows that this is the place where most users get this application, so we recommend that you avoid this website. Also, our researchers suggest that it may currently be bundled with legitimate programs and that those bundles are put up for download on borderline-legitimate software hosting websites. However, we have yet to find a software bundle that contains Fashion Life, but the possibility of this happening cannot be ruled out.

How does Fashion Life work?

This gadget’s website states that “FashionLifeapp is your instant access to fashion news, fashion forums, and social networks.” There is no deception here as this program actually features links to fashion-related new websites, such as Fashionworldwide.net and Fashion forums, such as Askandyaboutclothes.com. It also features links to popular social networks, such as Google Plus and Facebook, but this is a useless function, since it is easier to reach these networks via browser bookmarks. The same can be said about all of its promoted websites. Even though the websites are legitimate, this program is just not practical. However, there is a very serious issue with this program.

Some time ago Microsoft discontinued Windows Gadgets, because the Windows Sidebar platform had serious security vulnerabilities. That is why Windows 8 and 10 no longer support the Gadget platform. In a nutshell, Fashion Life and other gadgets can be exploited by cyber criminals and can help them access all of your files and take full control of your computer . Apart from that, this program may also display commercial advertisements on your browser and we do not recommend trusting the ads as they might come from unreliable sources.

How do I remove Fashion Life?

As you can see, Fashion Life is just another needless accessory that you can do without. You do not need Fashion Life so store links to fashion-related websites as you can bookmark all of your favorite websites on the browser itself, besides some of its links do not even work. This program is vulnerable to cyber attacks and it might display unreliable ads. So we highly recommend that you remove Fashion Life by going to Control Panel and clicking the Uninstall button.
