Hello,
Can you post AdwCleaner's cleaning report ?
Also, can you download RegToolExport, run it, then on the text field copy/paste this text :
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock2
Click on "Exporter" then save the file to your desktop.
Please attach the exported file to your next reply.

Hi, I have used Adwcleaner to get rid of some ads on my computer. After the restart, my computer couldn't connect to Wi-Fi, open control panel and numerous other things. I'm not sure if it has deleted some critical system files or something.
If anyone could help that would be great!
