Hello everyone,
Windows Defender has detected a potentially unwanted application with potentially unwanted behavior named PUABundler:Win32/CandyOpen. I can't find much information online about the danger of this application. Does anyone know more?
Additionally, when I try to remove it, it says removal failed.
Should I be worried? Is it a virus, or will it damage my computer's performance?
Best regards, and thank you in advance.

Hello,
PUABundler:Win32/CandyOpen is indeed an unwanted malware. Read the topic on the CCM Forum... https://forums.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-36751225-pc-infecte-par-pua-win32-candyopen-et-pua-win32-presenoker and how to get rid of it.

Hello.
It's nothing serious, it's an adware located in the temporary Windows folder.
Download FRST, once downloaded save it to your desktop, then right-click on FRST and choose Run as administrator, you will see this:
Wait for the message the tool is ready to run to appear, then click on Scan
Be careful, wait for the messages indicating that the scan is complete to appear.
At the end of the scan, you will have two text files on your desktop, FRST and Addition.
Then send the FRST and ADDITION reports to https://pjjoint.malekal.com/ and provide the two links generated by https://pjjoint.malekal.com/ in your response.
