Sound+

Sound+ is an application that promises to improve the sound quality coming through the headphones or the computer itself. The application says that it can improve the quality in such a way that users will think that additional PC speakers are connected. Even though the application seems to be a good program at first sight, specialists say that it cannot be trusted fully because it is a potentially unwanted program. Do you want to find out why it has been placed under this category? If so, read this article from beginning to end. We suggest that you read through it also if you want to find out how to remove it.

Sound+ seems to be really beneficial, so many users download and install it on their systems from its official website www.soundplus.space. Of course, some users might download it from other web pages, or Sound+ might enter their systems without permission as well. The major evidence that Sound+ is installed is the presence of Sound+ folder in Program Files. You have to find files such as silentconfigurator.exe, Sound+.exe, and SoundP.err on that folder. If you have already detected them, there is no doubt that Sound+ is installed.

Even though the program claims to be able to improve the sound quality, we suggest that you do not trust it. The main reason why it is so is the fact that Sound+ does not even act in a beneficial way. In other words, it says that it will improve the sound, but there are no guarantees that it will really do that. Specialists at pcthreat.com have also noticed that Sound+ does not have an interface. It will only show a window saying that “The changes will be effective after restarting the computer” after users double-click on the icon of Sound+ that is placed on the desktop. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that the settings will be really applied after the PC reboot. If you notice that nothing has happened after you installed Sound+, delete that program and install a more trustworthy one instead of it.

Another suspicious fact about Sound+ is that it can modify High Definition Audio Device and Realtek High Definition Audio, which are known to be audio drivers. By saying “modifies,” we mean that it adds {5013A5D0-34A9-489F-BF9A-3A0E34D8902B} and {B43F10EC-BD1C-48D5-A123-3DCA3321C187} to the original registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MMDevices\Audio\Render\{96672faa-4280-443c-8fc6-fa4759f76681}\FxProperties.

Our specialists have observed that there is also another reason why Sound+ modifies the registry. As our researchers have managed to find out, it also adds autorun keys to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run in order to be able to start together with Windows OS. As we can see, it starts working the moment the OS launches. This program not only starts working early, but makes some modifications in order to be able to connect to the Internet too. According to our specialists, the mostly likely scenario is that it needs the Internet connection in order to check whether or not there is an update and download it. Of course, it will not ask your permission to install those updates. It means that Sound+ might become a really bad program one day.

Specialists at pcthreat.com have also checked the Privacy Policy available on the official website of Sound+ while testing this application. They have found that the program can collect some non-personally identifiable details. It says that it will not touch any personal information; however, nobody knows whether it is really going to act as it promises to.

In case you decide to delete Sound+ from your PC after reading through this article, do not forget to scan your system against malware because this potentially unwanted program is spread via software bundles, and there is a possibility that it travels together with other unreliable applications. You can use the SpyHunter antimalware scanner for this matter.

Luckily, Sound+ can be removed via Control Panel, and it seems that it does not leave any junk files on the system. Users who have never tried erasing any kind of program should use instructions prepared by the specialists at pcthreat.com. There is another quicker way to get rid of Sound+ too. All you need to do is to acquire a trustworthy antimalware tool and scan your system with it. As there are so many unreliable tools on the web, we suggest that you acquire SpyHunter. This scanner will not only delete Sound+ for you, but will also eliminate other infections in the blink of an eye.
