Wise Anti Malware is designed to help protect against adware, viruses, malware, phishing, ransomware, spyware and unwanted programs (PUP/PUA).

Right off the bat, we need to let you know that the malware/adware scan and protection is not activated by default. This fact means you will need to check that you want to use those functions in settings to be able to utilize the malware scans. That said, this is a beta at the moment, and hopefully, it will come with these checked off by default in a future release.

The UI will feel familiar if you have used any anti-malware program recently as it adheres to the tried and true formula for an anti-malware app. It includes Custom, Quick, and Full scanning capabilities that will scour your machine for any signs of malware, adware, etc., issues. The quick scan targets your machine's memory, installed apps/drivers, registry, startup items, and temp folders while the full scan focuses on all the files on your PC. On the landing screen for Wise Anti Malware, there is also a quick check which specifically looks for and identifies any adware, browser cache, privacy risks, temp files, and registry entries. For all scan types, you are provided with a summary of what was found or not found during the scan.
