Please help!

I downloaded Batch2Exe, but my browser's downloads tab says that Batch2Exe failed to download.

Are there any solutions or other programs that convert .bat files to .exe?

I am using Firefox 52.3.0 32-bit

Seems like all of your network devices are out of date. Including Nvidia streaming service which could be a cause, since it does have light exploits to DNS changing. Adwcleaner -> Update your drivers to the latest, if you can Boot Windows "safe mode with networking" and update everything there. Let me know if that solves the issue. Also, farbar flushed your DNS so you should be good for now.

The fact that this is Spanish(Maybe?) makes it very VERY difficult to read.... Any way you could turn it into English? On the first glance noticed some things that MIGHT be potential issues, unsure, cause..... I am not yet used to reading the logs, and different language doesn't help the issue :)

Ports, applications, accessibility. Maybe your other device is used a lot less, you haven't messed with any ports or have any applications that require forwarding. Honestly, very weird issue, I would need to investigate the files. Can you scan your PC With Farbar MiniToolBox and Malwarebytes JRT? Post the logs that you get.

Just to add that SWB has just updated its data base and I've immunised the usual quantity.  Pleased to report that I ran AdwCleaner afterwards and there were no new reports.  Seems I've answered my last question.

Many thanks - pleased to see you've fixed it..

Re: Did AdwCleaner Remove Required Registry Files?

dans AdwCleaner par JoshRoss

Josh ;) Considering my uninstall folder is empty and none of the mentioned file registries are crucial, I don't see any problems that might come from removing those. It could be a malicious registry added to alter your search or download malware, but other than that, you should be good to go. (I am not an expert at registries, just slightly knowledgeable)

Hello, today after updating adwcleaner to the new version, has detected some PUPs (I leave you the registry of the scan and the cleaning). After reboot, I ran adwcleaner again and the PUPs are still there.

I have researched a bit about these addresses, and it seems that they are the default addresses that the router from my internet company provides. Each time I clean them, when I reconnect to...

I got that too, I noticed i always got wrong Chcksums from the author's site.

I tried with different browser to no avail, then tried and made it from Filehippo with right checksum.

Now running it, it told me it's an old version and I should download the newer one, though everything seems right as above and in "about" info
