Cant remove Driver Toolkit

Hello. I mentioned this in another forum and it was suggested I post it here.

In attempting to find a certain driver I downloaded a commercial product (misleading link!). Once installed it wanted payment. I also got a malicous warning from Avast and found the .exe for this program in the virus chest in quarantine. I also find the software on my program list in the software manager and an icon in my system tray. If I open the icon, it encourages me to buy the product. I cannot uninstall Driver Toolkit using Apps and Features. Windows can’t find it when it tries to uninstall.

I have deleted the exe from the virus chest.

Scanning now finds no threats. I am not sure if Avast hid any part of the software, if it was a false positive or how to get rid of this thing at this point.

I have Windows 10, on an Intel Pentium HP laptop.

Here’s the Malware Bytes scan log.

Antivirus does not hide anything, if malicious it is quarantined or deleted

See here https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0 scroll down to second picture, follow instructions and attach the two FRST diagnostic logs

OK here are the logs.

Let me know if it dies after this :slight_smile:

Hi Essexboy. I believe your fix worked! I can’t find evidence of the dreaded Driver Tool Kit anymore. Ive attached the fix log, and I did run adware cleaner which looks like it removed some registry keys. Thank you for your help! (PS I inadvertenly created another Avast account hence the modified user name).

Any further problems ?
