Thanks for your reply. There was one more thing that wasn't working that I forgot to mention, the HP Simple Pass fingerprint reader for logging in. There may have been more. Fortunately I did have a system image, and I restored everything. I have to say I was more than surprised that 18 items were flagged for deletion, I have MalwareBytes and AntiExploit Premium running, I am very picky when it...

Hello,

Ok. We'll need to remove the conflicting file:

First, we'll remove AdwCleaner:

  • Download DelFix from Xplode on your desktop;
  • Launch it with administrator rights;
  • Select all the option except the one proposing to save the registry;
  • Then click on the "Execute" button;
  • When everything is finish, the software will close itself;
  • Then a report appear on the notepad, please copy paste it...

Hello,

Yes, there is a quarantine in which is copied each removed element.

Can you share the logfiles ? I find quite odd that AdwCleaner has removed those elements, and I'd like to check. The logfile is usually located in C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner[Cxx].txt.

Best regards,

I just ran the latest version of Ad-Aware. It found 18 items to remove. I clicked OK. Restarted the laptop (HP Envy, 16GB RAM, 240GB SSD, 4GB VRAM). On bootup I found that Mailwasher icon was not in the Task bar, in fact it was not running. Then I found that Mailbird, my e-mail program wasn't running. Then I found that the touch feature of the touchpad wasn't working. (I could not slide up and ...
