Remove PlayCapt

PlayCapt is a service that allows you to access movies, games and music all the time and from any kind of device. This service attempts to be similar to Netflix, but we haven’t tested it ourselves and we strongly advice you not to try it yourself.

PlayCapt.com is usually linked to an adware that opens this page over and over. The service in itself uses malicious advertising campaigns to get to the biggest amount of users possible in hopes of tricking many of them. You usually fell upon these campaigns when browsing streaming websites to watch films for free. What happens is that you’re asked to download and install an alleged video player and once you’ve done that… you become a victim of the endless ads that will promote PlayCapt as the best service to watch an endless amount of legal movies. Don’t fall for this… is nothing but a lie! If they actually have legal movies to show it’ll be not worth it.

To completely remove PlayCapt.com we recommend you to use our free guide shown below, but make sure to execute all steps included in it. If you actually subscribed for this service our recommendation is to contact your bank directly to stop the scheduled debit they demand. You could even try to contact PlayCapt directly to get a refund.
