Windows 10: Popup Cleaner

A popup cleaner keeps coming up on my screen and I want to know if it is legitimate or a Microsoft Product. It comes up "CCleaner Important Update", version 5.75.8238. Should I run it or ignore it? If it is not legitimate, how can I get rid of it?


Thank You

See if these multi-step removal guides help:

• How to remove "Win an iPhone" Pop-up Ads (Virus Help Guide)
• Remove adware and pop-up ads from Windows (Virus Removal Guide)

Suggestion to read:

Best Practices for Safe Computing - Prevention of Malware Infection

 

reimage popup

I would give the other 3 options mentioned in the first guide:

• STEP 3: Use HitmanPro to scan for malware and unwanted programs
• (Optional) STEP 4: Reset the browser settings to their original defaults
• (Optional) STEP 5: Double-check for malicious programs with Zemana AntiMalware
  

a go.

And I would start with Step 4, resetting your browser
