There is no active infection on your PC. Please reinstall Google again with the same procedure and without logging to your google account scan with Adwcleaner.

 

[Karim Nori]

The threat appeared only when i was signed in and not when i was logged out. Reports attached.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Yes, exactly. It is synchronizing this. You need to empty your sync data.

I cleared but all the data shown on my dashboard didn't delete, should i clear synced data and then reinstall Google to solve this?

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Yes.

 

[Karim Nori]

AdwCleaner no longer detects a threat when im logged in. Do i have to do anything else?

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

That's all.
