My problem is getting porn icon pop ups, problems with Internet redirecting, problems installing windows updates always says the file is corrupt checked the file on another computer and it runs just fine. Download windows defender,avg. And last problem safe mode just reboots over and over again. Also, was using Microsoft software removal tool and when it finishes as soon as u try to remove infections a screen pops up saying computer will close in 60 sec.

Hi Jasmine1, You can try these scans in this order and see if it cleans your PC: 1- Trojan Remover- remove all it finds 2- Ccleaner Slim- clean out your junk files and also click on the registry button and let it clear out obsolete files. 3- Malwarebytes- update it and do a quick scan removing all it finds 4- Install Avast Free and let it to a bootscan on reboot and move ALL it finds to the chest EXCEPT when the files are in the windows system...be sure to google those and see if they can be removed. Let me know how you make out.
