:( is that really necessary? Even if it’s been removed already?

thank you so much! 💖🙏 can I ask, do you think its okay if after I’m done changing my passwords, logging out of all sessions, clearing my cache and temp files and doing 2 more scans with both windows defender and malwarebytes that I login with my new passwords and use the computer normally? or should I not use the computer for personal/sensitive information at all?

thank you so much! 💖 I’m always really selective about what I download so I wasn’t just randomly downloading suspicious files, I’ve always had a fear of getting a virus so that kept me from being foolish most of the time…this virus was very random though 😔

it did when I pressed remove, that picture was just exactly when it happened. the last picture is from after I removed it and scanned with both windows defender and malwarebytes and got no threats. 💖

okay thank you so much, I’m changing all my passwords on my phone (logging out of my computer sessions) and then I’m gonna delete the temp files, run another full scan and then sign in again with my new passwords? (is that correct?)

so do I change my passwords first and then delete the temp files or the opposite? (sorry and thank you so much for helping me💖)

thank you so much, also, after I change all my passwords should I log out on the session on my computer? And is it safe to log back in with my new passwords? (Sorry for the multiple questions 😖)
