I posted an article from
bizpacreview dot com
After closing it I found what looked like a website
securifyshieldward dot shop
It looks like a bad website
I hopefully deleted the post with the link to bizpacreview
I am not 100% sure bizpacreview led to the bad website but it is the only website that seemed weird that I can think of
Do not go to that post I posted if I did not delete it
Do not do what they want at the bad website
I tried simply closing the thing and then deleting all browsing history back from before the time this happened but the site keeps popping up when I close my internet browser
It does not look like a normal internet browser website
It does not have the full browser menu like when I normally browse the internet and it might be in a different window instead of a new tab of the same window
But I do not know how to get rid of this window
@shortstories
Bottom right corner where the clock is you may have to right click but usually left click to expand and it's there.
Thank you for your reply I opened task manager and tried ending every single process that it permitted and it did not stop it
For some reason it would not let me select end process for my internet browser even when my browser was closed
I am wondering if this thing is another browser window that appears when I close the main window and automatically reopens when I close it because Chrome browser on Chromebook like to reopen old closed windows
And this window has a bad website
Also it was search button plus escape to get task manager on Chromebook or you can open it from more tools in the browser
I did not see it where you posted it although were you directing me to do something else in that menu to try to stop my computer from loading the bad website with the fake anti virus download suggestion when I close the internet browser
I might have fixed the problem
Thank you for suggesting something to help
I had to reset the device then end every process I could with task manager
Then open the browser then close the browser after this the bad website appeared and I would start task manager and end the process for it
I had to open the browser and end processes so many times that one time when I opened the browser it asked if I wanted to load previous websites and I said no
Now seems fixed
I seem to have fixed the problem
But the thing is so old they said they would not give new updates unless I uninstalled all my apps which I have been avoiding until this happened and now all my apps are gone except the ones Chromebook wants and it will not let me reinstall the apps it uninstalled because it says they are already installed
This was a conspiracy by google to do planned obsolescence on my computer just like Microsoft does but not as bad
Supposedly my Chromebook is set up with Linux built in but I would need to figure out how to do that
I have been very satisfied my chromebook compared to windows software bloat nightmares
They just did some horrible thing where they only agree to do updates for a certain number of years unless you agree to uninstall all of your apps at the end of that time frame
On Microsoft there was a command to look at running programs and manually stop them from running
I need to remember how to do this for chromebook
Anyone want to give me hints
Might be called windows task manager
I need chromebook equivelent
