GreatIs ( ? ) UnHackMe is very weird and ambiguous, there are too many windows doing too many things at once, this is not an end user’s tool, but a programmer’s personal tool, it’s hard to understand how the programmer uses this, things are check-marked without a discernible purpose, color backgrounds change without a discernible function, I’m not sure what changes will happen if I click anything, I can’t see if there’s a toggle for undo, I can’t even identify what button to click to make anything actually do anything but dance between windows without actually doing anything, and then I had to do most of the work outside the program to inspect any found items to see if they were reported risky by anyone else, so what’s this for if I’m going to do all the work anyway?
Sadly, this is part of a syndrome of programs getting dumber and dumber, and users have to become programmers just to operate the programs.
While I appreciate that it’s really hard to write a program, that’s what programmers do, that’s not what end users do, we just want a program to work, and only offer us pre-action information if there are exceptions, and even then we want the program to give us intelligent advice — none of that is happening here.
Sorry, this program is no different or better for all the years it’s been around, it has not gotten smarter, more automatic, nor easier to use.
Advice:
— ONE screen.
— … please wait, scanning …
— Results on the SAME SCREEN:
— item 1 is not malicious but is reported as unwanted, it does [ name what it does ], if you value that feature, then click here to keep it, otherwise, we’ll set it aside so you can restore it or delete it / remove it altogether later …
— item 2 is malicious, it was installed on such-and-such a date apparently along with [ name the same-time installed program ], again, click here to keep it, otherwise, we’ll set it aside so you can restore it or totally delete it later …
— … and so on.
— Scroll the ONE SCREEN to review than click [ take action ] on each item or click [ take all actions ] at the top or bottom of the list, don’t worry, all items will still be available later either in place, set aside ( quarantine ), or in the recycle bin ( removed ), so you can undo or reverse any choice so long as copies of items stay in quarantine or the recycle bin …
— Click to reboot, we’ll show you this screen with results after reboot, and you can open this screen any time later to review and repeat any scans, review history, undo anything ( if a copy is available ), and or permanently delete anything.
Yes, always show items in quarantine and the recycle bin from previous scans so we can see history and undo capability.
Simple and smart.
Please.
