Windows: How to remove adware from your PC

Adware is extremely annoying and can be caught as easily as the flu. Just one wrong click in a careless second, and you'll be bombarded with ads and other annoying content. Fortunately, you can get rid of the annoying software quickly.

Remove adware from the computer - this is how it works

The easiest way to get rid of the software is to use a special adware removal tool. In this case, we recommend "AdwCleaner".

1. The program is available for free and can be downloaded and installed in a few steps.
2. Once that is done, launch the program and, if in doubt, change the language to German so that you understand the interface.
3. Now click on the "Scan" button within the program.
4. Once the scan has been performed successfully, an editor window will open where you can see the malicious files.
5. Clicking "Delete" and highlighting the said files will remove them from the computer.

Remove adware from the computer - the software is still there?

1. If you continue to have problems with the software, run the scan again.
2. Starten Sie nach dem Löschen ebenfalls den Computer neu.
3. Überprüfen Sie manuell in der Systemsteuerung, ob Programme installiert sind, die Sie nicht kennen.
4. Deinstallieren Sie diese und starten Sie den Computer anschließend neu.
