What is Win HDD? (Information)

Win HDD is a fake security software which uses fraudulent strategies by displaying false or exaggerated security issues on your computer rather than any legitimate ones to coerce you into purchasing their software.

It is being promoted as a system maintenance utility which displays false system errors and will try to convince you to get the full version of the program to fix the errors. An example of a false alert is: "The system has been restored after a critical error. Data integrity and hard drive integrity verification required."
