About PC Matic 4 scans (Legacy App)

PC Matic 4 scan options and components

Please note: We no longer provide updates to our legacy application on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.

  • On Demand Malware Scan (Quick, Full, Selective): Choose to clean up malware (viruses) and/or PUAs (pests).
  • Benchmarks: Benchmark processor speed, memory speed, and disk speed against all other endpoints we see to come up with a World Rank score. This is how this endpoint compares to all other endpoints scanned with PC Matic.
  • Update Vulnerable Apps: We will automatically update 30 third party applications and make sure to keep each on the latest version in order to maintain the security of the program. (Java, Adobe, iTunes, Skype, etc.)
  • Clean Junk Files: Cleans out the recycle bin and temp directories.
  • Performance Tweaks: Tweaks OS to run faster (ex: remove animation in start menu).
  • Scheduled Tasks: Turns off scheduled tasks deemed unnecessary

You can customize the scan options before running a scan by clicking the Options button on your Home Screen. After clicking this button, you can select Scan Options in the menu on the left side. This gives you the ability to adjust all of the settings for the scan before you run it. After the scan is finished PC Matic automatically begins the clean process and will present the results to you at the end.

There are a lot of customizations that can be made to the scan before you run it, but if you would like to keep it on our suggested defaults you can leave this screen unchanged and click save and run your scan.
