Hello,
I'm writing regarding a problem I have when starting up my PC! When I turn it on, two windows open, one of which shows me an error, that a program is failing to start...?
"Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Search Extensions\Client.exe'.
Check that you've typed the name correctly, and then try again," is what this error message displays.

I've found many similar cases of startup issues like this on Google, but I understand that diagnostics are done on a case-by-case basis...?
Thank you in advance for your help, and I will be keeping a close eye on this post, as I'm worried that it could become something dangerous for my PC in the long run..

Thanks again in advance!

Hello,

You have installed adware and potentially unwanted programs on your PC that open advertisements and slow down the computer and web browsers.
Here is the procedure to follow to remove them:

Start with this:

Download https://www.malekal.com/adwcleaner-supprimer-virus-adwares-pup/?t=33839&start= AdwCleaner (from Xplode) to your desktop.
On the AdwCleaner page, on the right, click the gray diskette with the green arrow to start the download.
Run AdwCleaner, click on [Scan].
The scan may take several minutes, please be patient.
Once the scan is finished, click on [Clean]

Once the cleaning is done, a report will open. Copy/paste the content of the report in your next reply by copy/paste.
If that doesn't work, use the site http://pjjoint.malekal.com to host the report, give the link to the report in a new message.

Note: The report is also saved under C:\AdwCleaner[S1].txt

then reset your browsers:
==================================
Reset your browsers and/or manually reconfigure your web browsers (homepage, search engine, etc.) and also remove/disable unnecessary/unwanted extensions:
* Internet Explorer and add-ons/search engines: https://forum.malekal.com/viewtopic.php?t=41399&start=
* Firefox: https://www.malekal.com/reparer-firefox/?t=36057&start=
* Google Chrome: https://www.malekal.com/reparer-google-chrome/?t=35837&start=

Like the angel you are, you laugh creating a lightness in my chest,
Your eyes they penetrate me,
(Your answer's always 'maybe')
That's when I got up and left
