Screenr was not working because of the Java related issues. Downloaded this app. Ended up getting 5 different types of malware through the official installer as part of the package. Still working on cleaning up the mess.

Much easier if you create a restore point or backup before messing up.

Much better if Windows would not let apps install in background lol. Anyways... Malwarebytes works well.

I dont think it will allow without notifying if the correct User Account Control settings is chosen. Anyways it is always a good policy to backup before doing anything which can mess up your system. I wasted several years cleaning and reinstalling....now I cant live without backingup....using Acronis True Image.
