Computer problem
Tried to put this on the computer forum but did not come up. Having trouble with computer. A program called PC PRO Cleaner keeps loading and stops everything. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it?

Bring up the ADD/Delete programs, find the offending program and right click to get the uninstall option. This should get rid of the program. If the program reappears after a reboot, then this is more like a virus and will take more work to delete. If you are running a anti virus software, try running a scan. If you are using Windows 10, run the windows defender. If none of this works, contact the computer club for one of their resident experts.

I would save what is important on another hard drive or in the cloud. Then I would erase everything and reinstall the operating system or buy a chromebook.

Malwarebytes. Download. Run it. Sorted.

Once you back everything up you can try all kinds of fixes. But sooner or later you need to reinstall the OS. Unintended stuff gets in and the OS gets a little bit slower everyday. You can a get a chromebook at walmart and try it out for 10 days. |

I'd be glad to list all the computers and operating systems I've use over the past 50 (yes 50) years but I would need a lot of space. Chromebook does everything I need it to do. |

I've been running Chromebook workshops at the Villages Computer Club workshops and have been getting good feed back. I gave a talk on Chromebooks at the Villages Connected Computer club last October and will give another in April. Like you, I feel 90% of Villagers could use a Chromebook. |
Can you run programs on Chromebooks like Quicken, Turbo Tax, do spreadsheets and word processing?

I own an older windows 8 laptop too. I need it for stand alone programs and to print to an older printer. 99% of the time I'm on the web using chrome and web apps like office. I need at least 2 ways to be online all the time. |
