How can I get rid of Dregol virus by Chromium??

Question

I have tried four anti-malware software to get this demon off of my computer, and they have removed everything associated with it. Yet still, when I go to the programs listing of everything installed on my computer, there it is. I don't see that it's affecting anything now, but how could I be sure? I can't uninstall it, it won't let me. I scanned my computer using malwarebytes for a second time after seeing it was still there, and it said there were no threats found. Please Help me!!!

Answer 2

It's a malware extension with a hidden installer. Don't worry-nothing terrible.



The manual fix: open extensions in developer mode, look at the path to the folder each extension is coming from, delete that folder (you might have to make it visible and unlock it for read/write.)



The automated fix: run a full scan and clean with Reason Core Security. Let me know if the problem persists.

Sometimes malware is installed right into your C/Program Files and has to be removed from there.
