Title: How patchmypc handle junk and bundle software installation/update
Post by: izzatz on December 25, 2014, 08:52:58 AM
I would like to know how patchmypc handles 3rd party ads/malware/bundle software installation. Does it install altogether or skip it?

For example, foxit pdf reader. If I remember correctly they always bundle it with other software and I might call it "junk" software. With right mind I'll always unchecked the junk installation.

So I would like to know how patchmypc handles this kind of argument.

thanks for a wonderful  software! :)

If that application includes bloat ware when using a silent switch we remove it. Check out https://www.facebook.com/PatchMyPC/posts/726750154074119 for some apps that we removed.
