Major difficulties with AdwCleaner v. 7.0.3.1

I am helping a friend clean a grossly infected computer. Windows 10. Uses McAfee AV.

He ran Malwarebytes 3 without difficulty and it cleaned with no problem at all. I do have the log if needed but cannot find a way to attach the text file

Bonjour, je voudrais savoir comment faire pour supprimer ces 2 raccourcis réseau qui se sont mis dans ce pc. Ces 2 raccourcis sont tous le même lecteur réseau. Merci beaucoup de m'aider à résoudre ce problème.

Re: CCleaner Malware

Hello,

This is out of the scope of AdwCleaner. I invite you to use Malwarebytes 3 for this issue: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/309-malwarebytes/

Here are some more informations about CCleaner 5.33: https://blog.malwarebytes.com/security-world/2017/09/infected-ccleaner-downloads-from-official-servers/

Feel free to ask if you need more details/help.

Regards.

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.

Hello,

It was a human error (mine actually) after an update which led to this issue. It has been resolved since, everything is back to normal so you can download AdwCleaner again.

Sorry for the issue,
