What is FixWin

FixWin 10 is a program that allows you to fix various problems that occur in Windows 10. It can be interruptions in the work of the Internet, problems when opening and installing other applications, etc. The utility is absolutely free and does its job well, compared to other similar programs on the Internet for all to see. The only drawback can be considered the absence of the Russian version, but, knowing English at least at a basic level, you can work in FixWin.

Application installation

Let's figure out how to install FixWin.

  1. Sometimes on the Internet you can find sites offering to install the Russian version of the application. Do not be fooled by this! When you install a file from such a site, it is likely that your computer will be infected. To avoid this, you need to download the program only from the official resource.
  2. After going to the site, scroll through the page below and click on the “Download File” button.
  3. Select the location where the archive with the installation file will be installed.
  4. Now you need to unpack this archive. This can be done using WinRAR or any other archiver. Read more about this in our other article.
  5. In the archive we are interested in the file FixWinexe. Run it.

Pros and cons of the program

The only drawback can be considered the presence of only the English version. However, as mentioned earlier, to successfully work with this software does not require special knowledge of the language. Of the benefits can be noted high performance and versatility of the program. It is also very convenient that all fixes are categorized. Also FixWin does not require installation on a computer.
