Sleepyhead and PCmatic?

Post by chronic » Mon Mar 04, 2019 9:55 am

I have had sleepy head for year. A year ago or so, I installed Pcmatic. Since that time, it seems as if pcmatic treats it like a virus or something and when I try to reinstall sleepyhead on my computer, I have gotten the message that it already exists even though I can't see or get to it. Advise would be appreciated.

Have you tried Uninstall?

You paid for PCmatic? Why not use free AVG antivirus?

There should be an option somewhere for you to tell PCMatic to quit bitching about SleepyHead....but I have never used PCMatic so I don't know where it is but that sort of option is normally available on the other security programs.
