I have a friend that wants me to fix his computer, however i cant remember the name of the software i used to fix my own. I asked a long time ago on this forum on another account. Someone told me to use these two programs, they were free, enter safe mode on my computer and run them. It got rid of all pop ups and fake virus scans. Does anyone know what these programs are, or any other good programs i could use?
