Bonjour,

Ok. Pouvez-vous utiliser FRST?

• Téléchargez FRST;
• Effectuez un clique-droit sur le fichier téléchargé, puis "Exécuter en tant qu'administrateur";
• Cliquez sur le bouton "Scan";
• Un rapport est sauvegardé, il se nomme "FRST.txt" et quelques informations supplémentaires sont proposées dans le fichier "Addition.txt";

Merci,

Thanks.

To remove the remaining service, can you do the following?

• Download FRST
• Right-click on the file -> "Execute as Administrator"
• Please also check Shortcut.txt
• Click on the "Scan" button
• The logfile is saved as FRST.txt , and additional informations are in Addition.txt.
• Please host them on Up2Share and share the generated link.

Thanks,
