With a lot of work, it's riddled with malware, I'd run an uninstall, then malwarebytes anti-malware, then ad aware then reboot.<br />
<br />
Do this all in safe mode :D<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Check in the install script what files are installed and start with removing those.<br />
but that may not be all, settings in config files in other places? (user directories)?<br />
registry settings? Global, per user? &nbsp;the list is endless.<br />
Some less documented features (hidden files, hidden registry entries) aka all techniques malware use to be persistent, <br />
might still lave traces....<br />
<br />
Installing is easy, removing not so.<br />
If you want to go back, without possibility of remaining artefacts, restore a backup from before the installing of this kit.

The only way to get rid of that <u>horrible</u> thing is to restore the system from a backup made before the product was installed. &nbsp;Nothing will get all of it out; not even the Revo Uninstaller. &nbsp;Once it's been in, there are bits and pieces left all over.<br />
<br />
You could surely give Revo a shot in Hunter mode, but I wouldn't put any amount of money on the results.

I do not trust these tools (having tried them). &nbsp;Back up your system completely and reinstall Windows 7. <br />
<br />
Is the computer new enough (2 years old or newer) to run Windows 10? &nbsp;Now would be a good time to upgrade.

I edited the registry to remove the Driver Genius items. &nbsp; It no longer appears in the system tray. &nbsp; Thank you.

<div>
glad to know my recommendation worked for you.

For future reference, and as much as people do not like third party tools, I have had great success with CleanMyPC. They have a large database of where all the junk gets installed, and their tool, which is not expensive, seems to do a decent job of removing ALL of an application. &nbsp;You mileage may vary, I do not work for them, but I do use that tool often to remove old junk.<br />
<br />
I should add that I do NOT use all the tools in their toolbox, like Registry cleaner.

How do I completely remove a program?

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.

System Programming

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.
