What the fuck and why is this on my computer it's hard as fuck to remove and no program I know can remove it. It masks it's file location and everything.

It just pops up over anything I'm doing and constantly flashes (getting this screenshot took 10 minutes of constant trying) until I close the program through the task bar.

Happened to me on Windows 10. Well this pop up didn't happen, but I randomly had chromium on my desktop one day.

click ok

The Windows world is really falling apart at the seams, eh? They even have viruses masquerading as Chromium now.
>>
>>60361342
windows is the virus
>>
>>60361383
no
>>60361390
I know it's trojan malware for a fact. I just can't get rid of it though.
>>60361410
yeah pretty much

It's on your computer because you installed it you retard. Also chromium isn't a virus. It's an open source browser. The adware you have bundled a modified version of chromium in with itself so it could attempt to scare you into using chromium and then inject ads in your browsing / phone home with your credentials.

Quit being a fucking retard. Fix your shit. If you can post here you can easily google and find the solution.

I never did though. I'm very wary of these sorts of things.

>Quit being a fucking retard. Fix your shit.
I've looked online everywhere and there's no info on how to remove this.

>>60361342
lol nice

although most installers give you the option to exclude the bloatware
>>
>>60362224
The "click here to cancel the scheduled update" doesn't even work, either.
>>
>>60361342
no. i saw chromium day in and out at bull shit repair big name brand. many fuckwads will use modified chromium that is just spamming adware in and out. 99% of the time the chromium was located in their roaming appdata to get around admin rights and uninstalling from appwiz.

not saying this is exactly your case but plz check there and also chromium is not a virus retard, just something a pajeet can compile with his adware extensions
>>
>>60362305
>chromium is not a virus
I know what chromium is. It's just me screeching about this thing trying to force adware on my PC.

But thanks, I'll check there. Is there a specific file name it puts itself in?
>>
>>60362360
idk it's usually some random shit you got to dig through. worst case go to malwarebytes site and download adwcleaner and 99% chance that and malwarebytes will assblast that thing for you
>>
>>60362423
Tried both of those, actually. Neither found anything, thing still pops up. Hence the frustrated post.

I believe I found it actually. WB.CFG file. I searched it and supposedly it's an update spoofer for malware. If this thread never comes back up, then that was that.

Thanks this guy: >>60362305
