WiperSoft is a Windows threat-removal tool for people focused on spyware, adware, browser hijackers, unwanted toolbars, and other potentially unwanted programs. It scans for detected files, folders, and registry entries, then lets users review results and deselect items they want to keep before removal. The vendor says the main product supports Windows XP and later. It is a narrow fit for Windows users seeking unwanted-program cleanup, rather than a general anti-malware choice for people who want broader listed protection.

Pricing is paid, with licenses covering five devices. The 6 months license is $6 per month billed every 6 months; the 1-year license is $4.17 per month billed annually; and the 2-year license is $3 per month billed every 2 years. The starting price is $36 per year. The vendor also lists a one-time cleanup trial in its FAQ, while checkout says “No free trial”; buyers should distinguish that cleanup offer from an ongoing free plan, which is not part of the product's paid licensing. A 30-day refund period is listed.

The main product includes daily virus-definition updates and a custom-fix service for specific threats. WiperSoft Guard, documented separately, monitors computer behavior and attempts to block ransomware before files are encrypted. That separation matters: buyers looking for ransomware monitoring should account for Guard as a distinct tool, while those seeking focused adware and unwanted-program removal can assess WiperSoft on its core cleanup workflow. Its listed support channel is email. Choose it for reviewed, selective cleanup on Windows; consider a broader alternative if your priority is more extensive anti-malware coverage in one product.
