Hello,
Since yesterday, having a lot of performance issues, I installed "Driver Reviver" on my PC, and since then, Avast's ScanSmart doesn't detect any problems anymore...

However, I still have them. In particular with my gmail.com messaging, which when I reply, refuses to send my response, under "server error 008," and other issues like when I play in "Cliquojeux" at Mahjong, I have freezes and Mozilla closes and opens...?

Thank you for your help, what should I do? And first, "Driver Reviver" seems quite dishonest as software???
Have a good weekend everyone...

Configuration: Windows / Firefox 55.0

Kind of you to take into account the fact that I have no knowledge in computing, I am not from this generation. Sincere regards, thank you in advance.

    Hello,

    Read the first paragraph of this page: https://www.malekal.com/comment-mettre-a-jour-ses-pilotes/

    ~~

    Go to the Control Panel
    then Programs and Features.
    Uninstall it.

    And to check if you have any other unnecessary/rogue programs:

    Follow the FRST tutorial. ( take your time to read carefully - everything is well explained ).

    Download and run the FRST scan,
    Wait for the scan to finish, a message will indicate that the analysis is complete.

    Three FRST reports will be generated:
    • FRST.txt
    • Shortcut.txt
    • Additionnal.txt


    Send these 3 reports to the site https://pjjoint.malekal.com/ and in return provide the 3 pjjoint links that lead to the reports here in a new response so that we can review them.

    Please press any key to continue the disinfection...

      Hello and thank you!
      Wouldn't it be better if I uninstalled it in Ccleaner instead?
      See you soon... Thanks
      I don't understand what to do for the analysis? What do I need to download?

      You can also uninstall it, if you want.
