Through a downloaded program a chromium browser got installed as well, unwanted.
As suggested in other topics concerning this matter I've deleted chromium from %Appdata%
and program files.
Are there more locations this unwanted program could be hidden? It is still showing up in my programs and features and clicking delete on it does nothing.
Should I check for malware, viruses or malicious content on my computer now?
Edit:
in my %Appdata\Local\Temp%
I've found all kind of installers and files without any extension. I have deleted this but how do I get rid of this problem, where else might it be? Concerning is my virus scanner does not mention anything. I've also found in my Sytem32
folder new files created at the same time as chromium in tasks, drivers and installers.
3By clearing the Temp directory, before you removed this unwanted program, you have made it difficult to remove it. I suggest downloading the current Chromium installer, then after it is installed, uninstall Chromium. – Ramhound – 2018-04-23T13:35:23.630
