I originally did that and it did not work. Genio is not listed but it still comes up as my home page and there is no way to change it. I think ever since I accidently installled it my computer has been getting slower I think it is a virus in itself. There was no file to run in the last post

OTL Fix

Please run OTL
  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, copy and paste in the following:

    :reg
    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes\{087CE277-A82B-4DA7-B4AA-303B9C99DADC}]
    [-HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2542492384-342735957-1596629310-1000\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes\{087CE277-A82B-4DA7-B4AA-303B9C99DADC}]

    :files
    ipconfig /flushdns /c

    :commands
    [emptytemp]
    [reboot]


  • Then click the Run Fix button at the top.
  • Note: The fix for OTL automatically hides your Desktop and Start menu so the fix can be completed. Do not be alerted, as this is normal.
  • Please do not exit the program. It might take a while to fix, but allow it to run. If it asks to reboot the computer, allow it to reboot. If the program freezes, and the computer fails to reboot - let me know.
    Lastly, post the contents of the log. (Located at C:\_OTL\Moved Files)
