This Fortect caper is the cat's meow

This Fortect caper is the cat's meow. It's a Security app that more than keeps the machine behavin'. It's a trustworthy program & that allows Komputer Bumpkins like myself, to feel confident while clickin' away. Fortect is always there in the background. It genuinely keeps the ByteBox on the straight & narrow.

Hi Larry,

We’re sorry to hear about the sound issue you experienced after using Fortect. We understand how frustrating it is when something that previously worked correctly suddenly stops functioning, particularly when you already know how to resolve the issue.

Fortect is designed to help maintain and optimize Windows systems, and we take reports involving audio or driver functionality seriously. We’d like the opportunity to understand what happened and determine whether the issue may be related to a driver update or another system change.

Please contact our support team at support@fortect.com with details about your computer, the audio device affected, and any error messages you may be seeing. If possible, please also include a screenshot of the issue. Our team can investigate further and guide you through the appropriate troubleshooting steps.

We’re sorry again for the inconvenience and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

Terrible program slows the computer to a stop

I stand by my review of this programme but have been in contact with customer support who have now refunded me in full and were very helpful. Therefore regarding all the good reviews it is worth trying, it may well work for your computer. I would give their customer service 5 stars but the program was terrible for me.

Downloaded and paid for this thinking my computer needed cleaning up and speeding up after reading all the great reviews on here. It was a big mistake. My computer became totally unresponsive, the program took over the computer. It was like going back to the 1990's dial up internet, everything just stopped working, I could not get into any programs. I spent hours watching the twirly circle which means wait. I could hear the computer making all the ticky noises as though everything had been blocked. I managed to remove it and everything went back to normal so it was definitely Fortect causing the problems! Well one days use of a program for £32 (advertised at £26) is a good learning experience! I will never get back the time spent struggling to make this work and probably will never see my cash again. What I don't understand is all the great reviews because I was ready to throw the computer out the window. Be very careful it will take over your computer in a bad way.

Hi Keith,

We’re very sorry to hear about the experience you had with Fortect. We understand how frustrating it must have been to have your computer become unresponsive, especially after purchasing Fortect with the expectation of improving its performance.

Fortect is designed to help optimize and repair Windows systems, and it should not prevent you from accessing your programs or make your computer unusable. We take reports like yours seriously and would appreciate the opportunity to investigate what may have caused the slowdown.

If you’re willing, please contact our support team at support@fortect.com and provide any details about your system and what occurred. Our support team can review the situation and investigate whether a scan, repair, or another process may have contributed to the behavior you experienced.

We’re also sorry to hear about your concerns regarding the purchase price and refund. Our support team can review your order and assist you with your refund request.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We genuinely regret that Fortect did not provide the experience you expected.

Within minutes of sending an email regarding an error message received during installation, a person from the Fortect Support Team was in touch. Within minutes of that contact, the problem was resolved. Support that actually provided support, quickly and effectively - What a concept.

It's magic, no smoke and mirrors....

After exhausting all of Microsoft's "cmd(s)" and not eliminating the problems, I remember a post about Fortech. It actually had a real trial version, which required a manual repair of each item it found. Quite some time later, everything was fixed by Fortech. So I bought in for some licences. Yup, the computer is running okay again.

VPN Problem

I had a problem getting the VPN to work.
It took almost most of the day to fix it but the support team stuck with it until it was solved.

Uninstall Fiascal

I was having trouble uninstalling a program both through Microsoft Software and Fortect. Although I eventually figured it hours later, (Stubborn)Fortect responded quickly to assist. That alone impressed me. Now I'm confident they will be there not only to assist me in the future, but be there to keep my Laptop running a top performance.
Thank you all the staff at Fortect.

Be warned it deletes things without giving info

So I got this and all seemed amazing it was doing what was intended so i bought a year subsciption. I then unistaleld a game on steam to be prompted by it to say hey shall I clean up the files from the game you just uninmstalled on steam (i was impressed as i had uninstalled it direclty in steam. So I instantly agreed, it then proceeded to without me even knowing till after every single game in my steam library on the c drivedeleted, nearly 800 gig of games and I am not on the fastest of internet so its going to take me weeks to download it all gain, I then began the instal and fortect which i had hit exit on turned out its still running in the back ground wants me to clean up 10k of files from a game im instlaling, heck no, I have now uninstalled the porgram from my computer entierly and am moving back to fsecure ticket (#294707). to say no warning no it literally told me would you like to clean up the folder of (game name) so I said yes. it then deleted everything so not only did it clean up one folder is deleted my entire steam directory. which i have just finished reinstalling but still mising a few older games I cannot remember but i stopped playing them so out of mind. I sent the pictures of what it said to me on my ticket which clearly shows it naming the game itself not saying "and all of steam"

Hi Jon,

We’re very sorry to hear about this experience and understand how frustrating and disruptive it must have been to find that your Steam games were no longer available.

Fortect is designed to identify unnecessary or potentially unwanted files and provide users with the option to review and clean them. However, we take your report seriously, particularly your concern that files were removed without sufficient information or awareness of what would be affected.

We would appreciate the opportunity to investigate what happened and determine exactly what actions Fortect performed. Our support is provided exclusively through email, and our team can review the relevant details and logs to better understand the situation.

Please contact us at support@fortect.com with the details of your experience so we can investigate this further.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention.

I'm very impressed.

To be honest, I had forgotten that I'd added Fortect to my PC. I'm not a heavy computer user, and I'm running Windows 10 on a Dell PC that's a few years old. But when I experienced a sudden slowdown of my system yesterday, I noticed the Fortect icon and decided to run a scan. Working for nearly an hour, It fixed 105,241 items and brought the speed all the way back to normal.

I read the glowing reviews and subscribed. Within minutes my computer was running very slowly and the camera would not work. AI customer services worked well and eventually told me to uninstall Fortect which I did and but the camera failed to work. In the meantime i asked for a refund which they did but then said they would offer no further support if you werent a subscriber. They seem to reply to poor reviews suggesting you contact customer service which is AI and goes round in a circle. Shame as clearly they have a good product let down by the service. I would re subscribe if i could speak to someone but I cant and am left with a broken camera.

Hi JM,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that your computer performance and camera functionality were affected, and we’re glad our support team was able to assist with your refund.

We’d also like to clarify that Fortect does not intentionally disable hardware such as cameras. In some cases, system settings, drivers, or other software can affect device functionality, and uninstalling Fortect does not necessarily reverse or resolve an underlying Windows or driver-related issue.

While our support is primarily provided through email, our team is committed to helping customers troubleshoot issues as thoroughly as possible. We would be happy to look into what happened with your camera and determine whether the issue may be related to a Windows or driver configuration. You may reach us directly at support@fortect.com

We’re sorry that your experience left you feeling unsupported. We take this feedback seriously and appreciate you bringing it to our attention.
