  1. Unable to remove SearchAwesome from programs and features


    I am trying to remove this app called SearchAwesome from "control panel" but even after clicking uninstall nothing happens. I have deleted some suspicious files from program files but that didn't help. Also tried malware bytes but no use. This weird app is still listed and windows defender just pops frequently saying removing malware. There are no addons with this app in any browser but it annoys with ads and pop ups. How do i uninstall and completely remove SearchAwesome.

    :)
