Free, standalone malware removal tool

Norton Power Eraser will take care of any possible malware infection that your current antivirus software can’t get rid of.

This free, standalone app from Norton has been especially designed to remove the most persistent computer viruses, such as scareware and fake security suites. Therefore, Norton Power Eraser features a really powerful, in-depth analysis that can be configured as either Normal or Aggressive.

As it doesn’t require installation, you can set up Norton Power Eraser and have it scanning your system in no time. It’s also a perfect tool to clean USB memory sticks. When the analysis is finished, Norton Power Eraser displays the results and asks you what to do next. It’s here where you should be careful not to tell Norton Power Eraser to remove critical system files.

Fortunately Norton Power Eraser lets you check the File Insight online database to learn more about the file you’re about to erase. Simply double check the information before deleting the file. Regardless, Norton Power Eraser creates a restore point in case something goes wrong.

Norton Power Eraser is a free, standalone security tool that removes aggressive malware from your computer.

  • Pros

    • Integrated with File Insight
    • Normal or agressive scan
    • No installation needed
  • Cons

    • More aggresive than a normal anti-virus

Great Product.. Thank you so very much. I've been a Norton customer for years, but my wife uses a different virus protection. As a result she managed to download the Cryptovirus. Your software saved the day, removed the virus and guaranteed Norton another customer for life.Many thanks, Jim and Barb Lawrenson

Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
