Obviously, this isn’t the case – the developers of the program are upfront about what both versions of SpyHunter 5 have to offer and there aren’t any underhanded attempts to deceive the users.
If you are only using the free version, you will be shown what the detected threats are, and you can go and manually delete them.įor some reason, this confuses users who think that the program is totally free and makes them think that they’ve been lied to and that SpyHunter 5 is trying to trick them into paying for the full version.
To be able to use SpyHunter in order to automatically delete the detected threats, you’d need to purchase its full version. However, its free version can only scan your Mac for malware. As we said, SpyHunter is a malware-removal program, so its job is to detect and delete malware from your Mac. However, the reason some people may still see it as unwanted is due to the nature of its Free version.
In our opinion, SpyHunter does not belong to this category of programs – it doesn’t use any misleading or aggressive methods of promotion, it doesn’t try to make unwanted changes in the system, and it doesn’t flood the screen with ads, pop-ups, and other similar promotional content. A PUP (potentially unwanted program) is any type of software that possesses undesirable traits such as showing many ads on the screen, using underhanded/deceitful methods to promote other products or its Premium version, aggressively changing the settings of the system and the browser, and more.
