Answer 5

Hi Batuhan Bayraktar1, scan with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST), and share the logs it creates, I'll help you remove it.

Rename FRST to FRSTEnglish.exe before running it.

Run FRST as administrator, use default settings and press Scan. Two logs are created in the folder that FRST is run from, FRST.txt and Addition.txt. Zip the logs and share on OneDrive, Google Drive or any file sharing service, then post the share link.

* Note: If you are downloading FRST with Edge, smartscreen will initially block it.
