    Default How to remove malware

    I am new to this group and just want to ask a question. When I run a scan it selects the problems found and then I hit fix selected. After a few seconds it has green check marks next to all the problems, does that mean that they have all been fixed? Do I have to wait for a bit or can I close that window? Thanks

    Hello jengr2015,

    6. Removing the threats found

    Before you start to remove the found threats you should distinguish between usage tracks, cookies and real spyware/malware. The shown ‘Threat Level’ and ‘Type’ should help you here. If you choose to not fix a found item you just need to disable the checkbox in front of it. To finally fix the found threats please click on ‘Fix selected’.
    Once showing the green checks you can close the window.

    Best regards
