I've used avg free for over 10 years. And it has never failed me. You can get it here : https://www.avg.com/en-ww/free-antivirus-download It will download a small online installer which you'll click to download the whole thing. When you're done downloading and updating, perform a scan and let me know what the results are. psucc: |

psucc:Try to free enough space in your computer, then run sfc scan. It usually takes up to one hour depending on how fast your computer is, so just ensure its plugged in. The sfc scan can fix almost every windows problem without needing a format. https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-use-sfc-scannow-to-repair-windows-system-files-2626161 |

https://www.avg.com/en-ww/download Try it from that link and select free version. Be sure to disable the current antivirus installed on your system as that too might prevent avg from fully installing. If after scanning u don't find any virus or malware then I suggest u defragment your hard drive and do a chkdsk command on it to fix logical errors. But do one after the other. Do the antivirus wahala first then move on to the next step. |
