So, I deleted installed versions of Chrome and Chrome Canary using uninstall, then reloaded a fresh version of Google Chrome. Then followed the steps indicated in the email your referred, installed Adware, deleted a few minor items four and reran scans again. All came back clean. After that ran Malwarebytes again and that scan came back clean. Could this have been due to having Canary installed and having that reported back as adware.Ghokswa? Or perhaps picked up when I downloaded Canary? Apparently all of Ghokswa references have now been removed from my system since they are no longer being reported back by MalwareBytes. Will continue scanning and then see if Ghokswa returns. Thanks for your help.

Requested Scan files posted as follows FRST.txt, Additions.txt, shortcut.txt and Malwarebytes Threat Scan logs Sorry for the delay but the Malwarebytes scan has been running for almost 90 minutes. 23 threats detected, related to Adware.Ghokswa and Chrome. Chrome is also indicating that my version of Chrome cannot be updated. I am also getting profile errors related to "earlier version of Chrome installed". Primarily use Chrome as the default browser and rarely use Edge(installed) or Firefox (not installed). Thanks Addition.txt FRST.txt MbamScanLog Threats.txt Shortcut.txt

So, repeated scans with Malwarebyte always return adware.ghokswa. Chrome browser indicates its out of date and will not update. Following the trails, Registry entries for Ghokswa, many. So heeding the warnings not to follow instructions in other threads posting here for assistance. Standing by for instructions to proceed. Best Regards NLS100
