Windows 10: How can I remove malware completely?

Hello everyone, since yesterday i’ve been trying to clear my laptop from some sort of malware, seems like i’ve blocked their access but there’s several infected applications which reactivate it. There are random „Windows Updates Version 24H2 x64 KN5048677“ in Queue and also other applications seem a little fishy. Furthermore it seems to be accessing Windows-Security, making scans useless and guessing it’s blocking the firewall. I’m really not that into computers, but getting frustrated about this. How can I safely know what to remove and could that update possibly be malware?

Best way to remove problem Malware

Hi There,

I am trying to remove a bundle of Malware without success.

There is a bundle of listed programs which I try to uninstall through the typical Control Panel effort, but they remain listed there:

Buenosearch Toolbar
MyPC Backup
PC Performer
Speed Test 127
UnknownFile

I was looking at this weblink which provides a 5 step process for Buenosearch alone:

Not sure how much certain guides can be trusted. One of the first things I read was to download Revo Uninstaller, and I've not heard of it so I'm not sure if it's trustworthy..........

 

removal of sidecubes malware

Do not get SpyHunter. It's just as bad as the malware you have,

Follow the steps here.

If it is not listed in the Control Panel, or it can't be removed there, move on to step 2. HitmanPro might not be needed.

 

Malware removal


Understood, OldMike. I will keep your suggestion in mind. I always appreciate suggestions from those who know more than I do. I think the Malware did do more than one scan, because I had to approve removal of what it found twice. I don't see Windows Defender on the list of programs. I think it was on there before they redid the software. Pluto TV also disappeared.
