OFFICIAL ZHPSuite TUTORIAL

ZHPSuite is a software that allows you to perform quick and complete search, diagnosis and cleaning of the operating system. 

ZHPSuite is based on the merger of three software programs, ZHP Diag, ZHPLite et ZHPFix.

In this tutorial three main points will be covered, analysis, diagnosis and cleaning of your computer.

How to remove SmartScreen protection
