As shared in subject, my tab ANDROID is infected by malware where multiple issues have starting lately
a) Constant popup message stating" Unfortunately, com.system.update has stopped"
b) Constant popup message stating" Unfortunately, org.snow.down.update has stopped"
c) Constant popup displaying to INSTALL application" com.android.keyguard"
d) Automatic checking (on) in Settings> Security> Allow installation of apps from unknown sources, despite my regular check off( its gets reactivated again). Device Administrators viewed are Android Device Manager (ticked), Daemon Service( twice listed- unchecked).
e) Installed Malwarebytes Anti-malware, upon scanning detected these 11 malwares, which it is unable to delete ( Norton is unable to detect those even). Any open app which I try to use after some seconds are abruptly closed.

Where did you got those malwares! :D

1) First of all, you have to reset your router to factory settings and then reconfigure it for your network.

2) You should perform a hard reset of Lenovo, possibly you try to save important data because everything will be lost.

Here the correct procedure ( I hope it matches your model but it is similar for other models).
