Malware removal

The malware seems to be Defender Tampering and Connect Screen.

They were installed by a hacker who seems to control my PC.

MSERT finds infected files during the scan but then says it has found no5thing and remediates nothing.

Any assistance will be very much appreciated.

Re: Malware removal

Not working at all. The McAfee too removed two innocent Quicken files but found none of the really infected files. (Sigh).
