    Hello Ryan, sorry about your problems. My name is Marco and I will do my best to help you.

    To remove the appearance of the FONDUE.exe popup, you can try the following steps:

    1.Ensure that the FONDUE.exe file is legitimate and not malware in disguise. Perform a thorough virus scan with your antivirus software. If you find the file located outside of the C:\Windows\System32 directory, it could be suspicious

    And additionally you can scan with these 2 anti-malware.

    2.Disable the Scheduled Task: The popup might be triggered by a scheduled task. You can disable any scheduled task related to FONDUE.exe by opening Task Scheduler and looking for any tasks that may be invoking FONDUE.exe, then disable them.

    To do this, press Windows + r and type: taskschd. msc

    Press ENTER and you will see the Task Scheduled window.
