MSERT

Hello All, thanks for your responses.

I downloaded the MSERT from Microsoft support and there's

only 3 options to scan. Quick scan, Full scan and Quick scan with

a custom file addition. The first Quick scan showed 232 infections

while scanning as I stated. Well I ran a full scan and found 243 while

scanning. It seems to be finding the Pups in each scan but DOESN'T

remove them.?

At the root of my problem is. I was hacked last week and want to be sure

I'm clean as possible. Does it sound like MSERT has been helpful? I've locked

down and changed the necessary items.

What's a needed next step? much thanks SK.

 

Error when trying to run MSERT

As previously mentioned, there are many others that is reporting the same issue for MSERT will not run and also having the error and this most looks like a bug as well and it will also be best to report it via the Feedback Hub app by pressing Windows key + F and this should launch the app and hopefully this will be resolved on the next update for MSERT.

 

MSERT

I'd rather run an MWB scan since that's what I trust more than Defender and MSERT.

Does MWB find & remove the PUPs: https://malwarebytes.com/mwb-download
