Win Scanner is not worth your trust because it is a typical example of fake defragmenter. It hails from the same family as HDD Low and it similarly tries to steal your money. Malware has been released to make PC users doubt that their hard drives are full of problems and then offer its paid services for fixing them. However, you should never believe these alerts displayed by Win Scanner but start looking for a reputable security program, capable of helping to remove this scam. If detected, Win Scanner becomes the only real problem which needs to be removed ASAP.

The instrument applied by Win Scanner for achieving the above mentioned commercial goal is similar to the one that is used by other rogue applications. Win Scanner gets on the targeted PC with a help of Trojans and other malware and then starts showing up on the screen. Fake error detection reports of Win Scanner will pop up every few minutes (or even more frequently) and then will also offer running scanners to make sure about the problems. It can be easily predetermined that in order to scare you, Win Scanner will display tons of infections and further will ask purchasing its license. These alerts mostly look like that:

Critical Error
Windows can’t find hard disk space. Hard drive error

Windows cannot find notepad.exe . Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.

Windows detected a hard drive problem.
A hard drive error occurred while starting the application.

Critical Error!
Windows was unable to save all the data for the file [random name]. The data has been lost. This error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware.

Critical Error
A critical error has occurred while indexing data stored on hard drive. System restart required.

System Restore
The system has been restored after a critical error. Data integrity and hard drive integrity verification required.

As you can see, Win Scanner has no perspectives to function on any system which is defended by anti-spyware. However, if your security programs have run out, Win Scanner may easily come inside unnoticeably. Considering the above mentioned facts, it’s highly recommended to remove Win Scanner rogueware and stay away from insecure content on the Internet.
