Hello there,
While being in a rush, i was installing an app for powerpoint and i did not check for programs/pups comming with the installer. Indeed my laptop got infected 15 mins before a meeting(my first one outside england), i almost lost my promotion because of these malwares. But hopefully someone told me about adwcleaner, which is a great tool+ it's completly free. Really guys thank you so much :D.
@SPARTACUS Sorry that it happened. What was these "other perfectly good programs" that AdwCleaner removed ? I also insists that we recommend to ask for help on our support forum while using such a tool. AdwCleaner let you choose what elements you want to remove. Finally, you can always easily restore deleted files by using the quarantine.
Regards.
Here is the translation to English. I just used Google.
Then I took a screen shot of WinUpdateFix. The you can change the instruction boxes to English. Then print out the altered picture and use that for reference.

Amazing software, Xplode!
I would like to point out a few things I noticed with AdwCleaner:
SereneScreen is a screensaver software, not malware. Ad-Aware is an anti-adware program, but AdwCleaner keeps detecting it. Also, could you please give us a way to add certain detections to a permanent ignore /excluded list?
I know sometimes software ends up being detected as PUP, therefore an exclusion list should solve any issues with it!
I also want to point out that sometimes, AdwCleaner seems unable to start - sometimes due to an infection, sometimes seemingly without a real reason. It updates and then fails to start.
Keep up the awesome work you're doing!
It kicked me out from the remote desktop connection!! how to restore this? can someone help please.

@BarmyBB Watch your language please. You could have simply restored the quarantine created by AdwCleaner. False, there are many warnings. You should always take care while using such a tool.
This stupid adwcleaner removed ALL my chrome extensions, including all tabbed webpages. i did a system restore ,but its all gone. thanks a million dickheads from adwcleaner
Things just got interesting: http://www.howtogeek.com/209654/scammers-are-using-a-fake-version-of-adwcleaner-to-trick-people/
"The ironic thing is that the real AdwCleaner doesn’t actually detect this fake version at this point."
^ You might want to fix that if it hasn't already been dealt with.
please read "with starting the scan" as "without starting the scan"! In the mean time I tried to do System Restore but that made the computer with even more problems, so I have to roll back to the state left by AdwCleaner.
