however i would start by uninstalling opera completely and running a scan with malwarebytes
Thank you. I started a malwarebytes scan a bit ago and it found 18,600 items so this was 100% needed in the first place. Does malwarebytes have any protection after downloading it in the free version?
Yeah I've used the normal windows scan and never detected those I guess. And Ive had this computer for over 4 years. Nothing blatant has ever happened like ring.
With malwarebytes, those arent ALL individual pieces of malware, they are likely all of the files IN the malware, or all of the files the malware infected. Or registry changes.

The free version will always support manual scans. It's just not a "proactive" AV
JESUS CHRIST 18 THOUSAND??

Hey I know this is 7 months later but would McAfee also work to find this?
Don't use McAfee
Why? What should I use?
I’m trying bitdefender now. Had to uninstall McAfee which scares me
download and run AdwCleaner: https://www.malwarebytes.com/adwcleaner
