## What it is
A free Windows utility that scans for and removes hidden cryptocurrency miners by checking processes, files, registry, WMI, services, and scheduled tasks. It is an auxiliary security scanner (not an antivirus) with a GUI, console mode, quarantine manager, and detailed reporting.

## Use cases
- find hidden crypto miners on my windows pc
- remove silent miner malware
- scan for suspicious processes using high cpu
- check registry and scheduled tasks for malware persistence
- clean up cryptomining infection
- detect miner processes and quarantine malicious files

## When to choose
- you suspect a hidden cryptocurrency miner on a Windows 8.1/10/11 machine
- you want a free, focused scanner for miner artifacts like processes, WMI, services, and scheduled tasks
- you need quarantine and detailed scan reports without installing a full antivirus

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose antivirus or full endpoint protection suite
- you run Windows 7 or a non-Windows OS
- your antivirus policy forbids tools that may be flagged as potentially unwanted programs

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: security, vulnerability-scanning, monitoring
- domain: security, windows, privacy
- platform: windows, cli
- tags: cryptominer-detection, malware-removal, anti-miner, system-scanner, quarantine, free-tool
