What this infection does:
WindowsFixDisk is a fake computer analysis and optimization program that displays fake information in order to scare you into believing that there is an issue with your computer. WindowsFixDisk is installed via Trojans that display false error messages and security warnings on the infected computer. These messages will state that there is something wrong with your computer’s hard drive and then suggests that you download and install a program that can fix the problem. When you click on of these alerts, WindowsFixDisk will automatically be downloaded and installed onto your computer.
Once installed, WindowsFixDisk will be configured to start automatically when you login to Windows. Once started, it will display numerous error messages when you attempt to launch programs or delete files. WindowsFixDisk will then prompt you to scan your computer, which will then find a variety of errors that it states it cannot fix until you purchase the program. When you use the so-called defragment tool it will state that it needs to run in Safe Mode and then show a fake Safe Mode background that pretends to defrag your computer. As this program is a scam do not be scared into purchasing the program when you see its alerts.
