I bought a Logitech wireless mouse and it worked on my Desktop and then an it quit working after an old program came up. I cannot get out or close the program without the mouse.

I have Windows 10 on it now, When I got the Desktop a few years ago it came with Windows 7 and it was a month or to before Windows 8 came out so the computer is not that old, it is an HP. Just last week I was able to download Windows 10 on it. The mouse worked fine until this old program came up which I NO LONGER have.

I can take the same mouse and put it on my Laptop and it works just fine.
What would be the problem and how do you get these old programs removed?
 
Try a different mouse. What old program are you talking about? Try booting to safe mode and uninstall program that way.
 
I have used an NEW MOUSE
How do you get into removing these programs, they are a program that 4 years ago they told me that they were HP and Microsoft which they were not.
Now I need to be able to get into my files to remove all this information.
 
How does one remove it if you have it?
Don't know anything about removing it. Should you have a computer repairman do it?
 
To scan your system for malware, do the following.

1.

Please download AdwCleaner by Xplode onto your Desktop.



•Please close all open programs and internet browsers.
•Double click on adwcleaner.exe to run the tool.
•Click on Scan.
•After the scan you will need to click on clean for it to delete the adware.
•Your computer will be rebooted automatically. A text file will open after the restart.
•Please post the content of that logfile in your reply.
•You can find the logfile at C:\AdwCleaner[Sn].txt as well - n is the order number.

2.

Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

•Shutdown your antivirus to avoid any conflicts.
•Very important that you run the tool in this manner:
Right-mouse click JRT.exe and select Run as administrator
Do NOT just double-click it.
•The tool will open and start scanning your system.
•Please be patient as this can take a while to complete.
•On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
•Post the contents of JRT.txt in your next message.

3.

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and save it to your desktop.
  • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to
    • Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  • then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version. Please keep updating until it says you have the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • A log will be saved automatically which you can access by clicking on the Logs tab within Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

If for some reason Malwarebytes will not install or run please download and run Rkill.scr, Rkill.exe, or Rkill.com. If you are still having issues running rkill then try downloading these renamed versions of the same program.

EXPLORER.EXE
IEXPLORE.EXE
USERINIT.EXE
WINLOGON.EXE

But DO NOT reboot the system and then try installing or running Malwarebytes. If Rkill (which is a black box) appears and then disappears right away or you get a message saying rkill is infected, keep trying to run rkill until it over powers the infection and temporarily kills it. Once a log appears on the screen, you can try running malwarebytes or downloading other programs.

Please post the log that Malwarebytes displays on your screen.

Then post the logs from the following 4 programs.
