HijackThis Fork 2022 full offline installer setup for PC 32bit/64bit

HijackThis lists the contents of key areas of the Registry and hard drive--areas that are used by both legitimate programmers and hijackers. The program is continually updated to detect and remove new hijacks. It does not target specific programs and URLs, only the methods used by hijackers to force you onto their sites.

Detects several new hijacking methods
Fully supports new Windows versions
New and updated supplementary tools
Improved interface, security, and backups

As a result, false positives are imminent, and unless you're sure about what you're doing, you always should consult with knowledgeable folks before deleting anything. HijackThis Fork inspects your PC browser and operating system settings to generate a log file of the current state of your Windows!

Note: Trend-Micro has abandoned the development of HijackThis product (the latest version 2,05 from 2013 is still available for download). Stanislav Polshyn, a lawyer and security observer, and malware researcher from Ukraine created a fork and continued the development of this tool as an open-source project.
