Hello, since this morning, when I open Google Chrome, New Tab opens instead. I don't know why. How can we uninstall it please? Thank you in advance.

    Hello @karounette StatusMember.

    Reset Chrome see this page.

    Check if newtab is still there.

    If newtab is still present, do the following:

    Download FRST.

    Once downloaded, save it to the desktop then right-click on FRST and choose Run as administrator you will see this:

    Wait for the message the tool is ready to work to appear then click Scan

    Attention, 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 the desktop FRST and Addition.

    Then send the FRST and ADDITION reports to https://www.cjoint.com/ then provide the two links generated by https://www.cjoint.com/ in your reply.

      Hello Bazfile, thank you for your response. If I reset Chrome, will I lose my bookmarks?

      @karounette StatusMember .

      What changes are mentioned on the page I referred you to, favorites are not part of the changes, if you're worried save your favorites or go directly to the FRST analysis.

      In your question, you mentioned that newtab opened with Chrome; if you no longer see it, it means it's no longer present.

      @bazfile I restarted my computer, the appearance of Google is normal because before it said something instead of SEARCH and I no longer had the thumbnails of the visited sites, but you can still see that it's still somewhere.

    Hello,

    You can analyze and remove malware/redirections with RegRun Reanimator.

    https://greatis.com/security/reanimator.html

    Click on Fix Problems and then Fix Malware Issues.

    Be careful, it's important to properly sort through deductions or Internet searches and/or VirusTotal analyses* to only remove viruses or unnecessary items, because it detects everything, good or bad, important or not; it's not an antivirus but an analysis tool that allows you to see details about potentially active items, sometimes good, sometimes bad.

    You need to look at the tabs at the top for the different types of items viewed.

    It shows details like types, names, and locations of files, etc., which often serve as concrete clues.

    Whether marked in red (often bad), yellow, blue, or green, it's the user who must judge the relevance of what it detects.

    Check the items to delete and not the others, and click the red button in all sections where there's something to delete, then go to Finish! and click the button to restart Windows.

    If it doesn't detect enough, you can use the Filter Set button or Inspection Mode to see everything, but be extra cautious about what you delete.

    Or Online Multi-Antivirus Scan

    https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload

    Note, no need to analyze Browser Plugins (browser extensions), you can remove them or at worst reinstall...

    You have to install this RegRun reanimator, right?

    Yes, it installs itself, but it doesn't interfere with the functioning of the PC and is inactive when you're not using it.

    It's not good, you can delete it.

    Red Button, and see the rest of the tabs at the top, Browser Plugin if you're talking about an extension.

    UnHackMe is available in French, but it is paid (You pay once for lifetime access)

    https://greatis.com/unhackme/index.html

    It's somewhat similar, but resident, which monitors the PC, not like an antivirus, it doesn't scan all files, but it monitors certain additions, changes, and you can analyze online with the option to do so.

    On-Line Multi-Antivirus Scan, like with Reanimator.

    I spent 2 hours on it, but honestly, I don't really see what I'm looking for.

    I'm giving up ... because I'm not able to do it.

    What are the risks if I leave it as it is?

    See you later
