Hey, I was checking up on my sister's notebook. She told me that she couldn't use Chrome and some websites anymore. At the moment, I am installing an antivirus on her device, one of the known ones. But in the meantime, I really can't connect to websites like Binance and can't turn Chrome on. When I try to install Chrome, the installer comes in and out in a second, and nothing happens. I tried to check if there was any VPN, but there wasn't, and I couldn't see any configuration at the hosts file. So, I need your help. I will put the FRST log down there.

Hi
 
Welcome :)
 
I'll be helping you with your computer.
 
Please read this post completely before beginning. If there's anything that you do not understand, please don't hesitate to ask before proceeding.
 
Please take note of the guidelines for this fix:

  • Please note that I am a volunteer. I do have a family, a career, and other endeavors that may prevent immediate responses that meet your schedule. Do note that the differences in time zones could present a problem as well. Your patience and understanding will be greatly appreciated.
  • First of all, the procedures we are about to perform are specific to your problem and should only be used on this specific computer.
  • Do not make any changes to your computer that include installing/uninstalling programs, deleting files, modifying the registry, nor running scanners or tools of any kind unless specifically requested by me.
  • Please read ALL instructions carefully and perform the steps fully and in the order they are written.
  • If things appear to be better, let me know. Just because the symptoms no longer exist as before, does not mean that you are clean.
  • Continue to read and follow my instructions until I tell you that your machine is clean.
  • If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to ask before performing the task that I ask of you, and please wait for my reply before you proceed.
  • Scanning with programs and reading the logs do take a fair amount of time. Again, your patience will be necessary. :)

Let's begin... :)

Check your Settings -> Apps -> Installed Applications. If Chrome is present, uninstall the application. Once done download Google Chrome.

 

Try downloading from this site:

 

Google Chrome - The Fast & Secure Web Browser Built to be Yours

 

Install the application.

 

Run FRST64 once again and post new logs.
