Windows 10: Santivirus Seguzaro Get it off my computer!

Thank you so much for your reply to my initial question. The first time I was in Safe Mode I got rid of the stand-alone Santivirus and all of its files. I couldn't download the Malwarebytes when my computer was in Safe Mode, so I went back into standard, downloaded and scanned. It still found 30 files with Santivirus and other names I had seen in the Santivirus file. I quarantined them. Then I went back into Safe Mode, looked up Digital Communications folder, checked the Santivirus file that was in that folder. All files were still there. At first, no luck deleting. Then I changed the name to an uncomplimentary term, still no luck. Changed the name back to Digital Communications, got back into Santivirus, and found one of the folders that let me click and change the permission setting so that I could now be in charge. Then I deleted all Santivirus files, deleted the Digital Communications folder, and emptied recycle. It is gone now. What a mess.

Thank you for your help.

Microsoft software does not uninstall SAntivirus. SAntivirus is not wanted. Will not go away. Computerized reply is sub-standard. Surely, the experts can solve it.

Hi there SAntivirus, I will be your Independent Advisor for today, I hope we can both resolve your problem.

Santivirus is a known PUP or PUA, ( potentially unwanted application or potentially unwanted program).

To get rid of it please follow the steps below.

Lets start by downloading the free version of Malwarebytes, it is a freeware that you can use to scan, detect and delete viruses like the one you currently have.

Once installed please make a full scan. You may remove this software once you are done with it.

And follow these additional steps.

Please try to stop the Santivirus process in the Task manager.

To get rid of it we need to check first where the file is located most likely it is hiding in one of your folders.

If it pops up do not close it instead open up the Task Manager, click on more details below then look for the open process associated with the pop up, if you cant see it in the process tab go to the details tab and look for that process then if you see right
click it and then go to file location and then once you have located the file delete it.
