UVK staat voor Ultra Virus Killer, maar dat dekt de lading niet helemaal, want dit programma kan veel meer dan alleen virussen en malware verwijderen. Met UVK kunnen namelijk ook diverse Windows-problemen worden verholpen, met bijvoorbeeld processen, drivers of de met Windows meestartende programma's. Voor het scannen van de computers wordt gebruikgemaakt van externe programma's als Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, SuperAntiSpyware en HitmanPro, wat meteen de download van slechts ongeveer 5MB verklaart. Het programma is echter niet aan te bevelen voor de beginnende gebruiker en is in die zin vergelijkbaar met D7. Sinds de vorige vermelding in de Meuktracker zijn de volgende veranderingen doorgevoerd:
Changes in version 2.6.0:UVK 2.5:
- General internal debugging and improvement.
- Renamed the UVK fixes section UVK system repair
- Removed the old UVK system repair section, replacing it by a new section: UVK tools. This new section is divided in three sub-sections:
- File tools: Allows to select a file and perform several actions: Display all sorts of info on the file, get the file's MD5 VirusTotal hash report, grant and deny access to the file, get more info on the file over the internet, and delete the file.
- Registry tools: Mostly the same as above, but for a registry key, instead of a file.
- System restore management: Allows to perform several diferent tasks related to the system restore: Enumerate the existing restore points, Select and delete one or several restore points, create restore points, enable or disable the system restore.
- Added a new feature: UVK running password protection. Requested by several users. The password can be set in the UVK options section. This option is only available for the users who have bought the UVK branding key.
- Added a new option to the Toggle Enable/Disable combo box: System restore.
- Added two more custom commands: and . Also add them to the Insert(3) Log analyzer's menu.
- Added a new scan section: . It's the list of the most recently run programs. Added to the Startup entries and services, and the Scan and create log sections.
- Create a method for updating the urls for Mbam, SAS, HitmanPro, Java, Flash, DirectX and .Net without needing to update the application.
- Updated the Mbam latest version check.

- Updated the Hitman Pro automatic scan for the version 3.6.
- Updated the Repair script options in the Automatic anti-malware scans section. Now it includes more than 30 fixes that can be executed after the third party applications scans.
- Also added the option to choose the path where the logs will be moved to and to select all the fixes, none, or revert to the default selection.
- Updated the UVK fixes section, Now all the fixes in the System repair section have been added to the fixes list. As you may guess, I'm planning to remove the System repair section in the next version, replacing it with a new section with new features. Just wait and see :).
- Increased the height of the UVK fixes list view, and separated the fixes in several sections, for a better view.
- Automated the installation of the Microsoft Fixit Center. Now it's done with no user interaction.
