Knctr ?

[1rovert]

I have tried to uninstall this, I don't know how it got there, and when looking on google to uninstall, it offers a spycheck, which I don't want either.
Anyone know how I can clear it, I've already tried 'Malware'.

TIA

Not opened any of the links but there seems to be a fair number of places related to it's removal on Google.

When you say...I've already tried 'Malware'.......do you mean Malwarebytes, because that would be my choice to remove anything left behind after clearing-out Knctr.

Knctr would have arrived in your equipment (as a packaged item) when you download a particular programme that you wanted. Consequently you will need to find and uninstall it and then give a run-through with the free edition of Malwarebytes.


Click Start > Control Panel > Uninstall a Program.
Look down list for Knctr and click onto it.
Click 'Uninstall' and then OK to save the changes.

Whilst in the 'Uninstall a Programme' section, it will be worthwhile noting the date that Knctr arrived and then seeing what else came as a download the same day; and removing any other downloads you you Do Not require.

The guide in this post http://wiseuninstaller.com/uninstall-guides/cant-uninstall-knctr-complete-removal-guide/ did the trick. I got knctr somehow several days ago and often received the message saying the software is still running and I couldn't uninstall it. Just shut down the program first and then uninstall it from Programs and Features, the problem will be fixed.
