Uninstall Remove PerforMax Cleaner Step by Step

1. Remove PerforMax Cleaner in Safe Mode. Reboot your computer to enter Safe Mode. In case there is any Windows 8 user having no idea how to do this, here is the instruction:

Use Shift + Restart – works in Windows 8/8.1.

• Press the “Power” button during the Windows login screen or in the Settings charm > press “Shift” on your keyboard > select “Restart”.
• When it asks you to choose an option, click “Troubleshoot”.

• In the Troubleshoot screen, click “Advanced options”.
• In the Advanced options screen, click “Startup Settings”.

• You will be informed that you are going to restart for changing several Windows options, which include activating Safe Mode > click on “Restart”.
• Your PC or device restarts again and presents 9 startup settings > press “F4” on your keyboard to Enable Safe Mode / press “F5” key to Enable Safe Mode with Networking / press “F6” key to Enable Safe Mode with Command Prompt.

2. Make sure you’re running your PC as administrator, and remember to shut down the program before you take actions to remove PerforMax Cleaner.

3. Remove PerforMax Cleaner from Control Panel.

Windows 7 user: Click on “Start” button in the bottom left corner (or simply hit the Windows key on your keyboard), move your mouse cursor to the “Control Panel” item and then click on it > select “Uninstall a program” under the Programs column. (If you’re a user of Windows XP, you can click on Add or Remove Programs.)

Windows 8 user: Hover your mouse cursor to the lower right corner until you see the charms bar pops up from the right side > type “control panel” in the search box, and press the “Enter” key on your keyboard > Select “Uninstall a program” under the Programs section.

Double click PerforMax Cleaner to begin, and follow the default uninstaller to proceed until this part is finished.

4. Remove PerforMax Cleaner from Windows Registry Editor.

The entries of every program are written on the Windows Registry during installation, so if you want to complete remove one, don’t skip this part. Yet the wrong deletion could make things much worse, so it’s advised to export the whole Registry as a back-up and save it to a convenient directory in case of any mistakes. You may delete it after you successfully remove PerforMax Cleaner.

On Windows 7: Click on “Start” button (or simply hit the “Windows” key on your keyboard), type “regedit” in the box and press Enter key.

On Windows 8: Just like how you opened Control Panel > Hover your mouse pointer to the bottom right corner until you see the charms bar pops up from the right side, type “regedit” in the search box, and hit the “Enter” key on your keyboard.

Then the Registry Editor will be presented with a new window > Delete everything under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/software/PerforMax Cleaner/

5. At last, reboot your PC.

If you have performed every step above, I believe the program has gone for good. What if you think it too tedious to read and understand and want a simpler solution? Luckily I prepared the following part for you.
