Luka Post 0 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) How Can i fix pop up coming up every 10-15 minutes asking "How do you want to open this type of link (http)?" Then if i select google chrome it redirects me to random ad website. I tried Eset endpoint, Trojan, Kasperski and Malwarebytes antiviruses but they can't detect any malware. Please help me this is the most annoying thing i have ever seen. EDIT: I also tried setting default applications and attaching file type to google chrome but it didn't work. I asked about this problem on microsoft forum too, but sadly they couldn't give me helpful answer... Edited February 20, 2017 by Luka Post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,074 Posted February 20, 2017 Administrators Share Posted February 20, 2017 Have you read this post? https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome-admins/aGt853bpPzc " I had to disable the GPO "making chrome default browser" setting." Or is that a home computer that is not in a domain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itman 1,659 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Appears to be a file association problem. Here's an article on fix for Win 10; assume also applicable to Win 8: https://www.infopackets.com/news/9863/how-fix-windows-10-keeps-asking-how-do-you-want-open-file Also surf the web - number of articles on the issue.

Luka Post 0 Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Nope. Sadly, it's not file association problem. I've tried all of those articles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,074 Posted February 21, 2017 Administrators Share Posted February 21, 2017 Does the question pop up even if you don't have any browser running? Perhaps you could gather logs using ESET Log Collector. See my signature for instructions and drop me a pm with the output archive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka Post 0 Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) Yes. It pops up randomly, even if my browser isn't running.I'll definetely check out Log collector Edited February 21, 2017 by Luka Post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
