How to Remove Nero Scout

How to Remove Nero Scout thumbnail
Nero Scout can really bog down your PC.

Nero Scout is part of the Nero suite of products for Windows, released by Ahead Software. The Nero package is used mostly for the creation of multimedia discs, including CD burning and printing disc covers (nero.com). One part of the package, Nero Scout, is a media indexer that constantly searches your computer for new multimedia files to add to its database. Unfortunately, the software can slow down your PC to a crawl and make normal use impossible.

      Attempt to disable Nero Scout normally. Double-click on "My Computer."

      Right-click on the "Nero Scout" icon.

      Select "Options."

    • 4

      Uncheck the box next to "Enable Nero Scout."

      Click the "Start" button.

    • 7

      Choose "Run."

    • 8
