My pc is infected with initialpage123.com. Google search is not working with Chrome and windows defender exclusion list can not be removed. Default search engine of Chrome is now initialpage123.com. Search redirects to nova.rambler.ru.

Hello,

Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.

Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

​

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

• Right-click on
  
  icon and select
  
  Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• Press the Fix button just once and wait.
• If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
• When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

Thank you so much. The fix works but how do I remove these folders from the windows defender exclusion list? The remove button does not works at all.

Everything is smooth and normal. No presence of abnormal activity.

Try to reboot your PC and to remove quarantine.
