Yet another "Windows is driving me nuts" thread
#12
Thanks, I'll try that, been up to my arse in alligators at work lately, and now have a day to mess with her old PC.

Got her a new one ... which I was gonna do a few months ago anyway.

Will advise if safe mode helps.

Maybe try rebooting in safe mode with networking, update Malewarbytes, and rescan. Sounds like your system has been hijacked and won’t let any scanners function. If I have read correctly it is a non-stop popup right? If Trend Micro is catching it but it comes back then the source file has not been quarantined.

Malewarebytes normally catches everything virus scanners miss but needs to be up to date and ran from a safe mode environment.
