Consider reaching out to a professional if you can't remove malware from your computer. A technician may have the expertise and tools required to remove stubborn malicious software. You can also format your hard drive and reinstall your operating system if all else fails.

The easiest way to remove malware from your Windows PC is to use a free virus removal tool like Avast One, which scans for and removes existing malware, as well as prevents future infections. Avast One is compatible with all devices, so you can scan for, detect, and remove malware on Mac, iPhone, and Android too.
