ESET Powelikes Remover works.
Well I am just starting on your recommended process but I want to say that I am not tech savvy but I can understand everything so far, so congrats for that alone.
If it works, I will add a real feedback.
Thank you.
I deleted the virus but still got the “Windows Power Shell has stopped” error. I noticed it comes up after launching Internet Explorer. SFC did not fix it. Startup Repair did not fix it.
Resolution: Go to “Turn windows Features Off/On” and uninstall IE…reboot…go back and re-check it to reinstall. copy the IE.exe from Program files back to the Desktop…viola…no more error.

Thank you. I can be reached by email on kevinarrows@appuals.com
Yes I did.
I did everything you said and it’s still happening…and driving me crazy. I do not think I had the virus you mentioned. Any other ideas?
I believe this worked for me too! Thank you!
Kevin… (fingers crossed) I believe it worked! It did find it with your ‘ESET’… should I run it periodically?
Kevin, I followed the instructions for ‘your current security settings do not allow…’. I guess this is called re-setting the browser? I did that and it still did not allow me to download anything. Also, when I click on download the message comes up that the internet explorer stopped working.
Sorry, this may sound ignorant but how do I "reset my browser?
You can reset your browser, then do step 11 in safe mode.
Kevin, I was so happy to have found your site. But so far it has not solved my problem. I had both situations, powershell stopped working and current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded. I followed steps 1-4. Then followed the instructions for “current security settings…”, rebooted and then went back to do step 5. I purchased th Malwarebytes Anti-Malware premium. But I got the message that it cannot be downloaded. After clicking on re-try 2 more times a got the message that the internet explorer has stopped working. After rebooting I noticed that I had the free Malwarebytes Anti-Malware already installed. I was able to upgrade to premium for which I had already paid. I performed the custum scan as described and quaranteened the items. But now I am stuck because I cannot download the other cleaners. I still have a problem with downloading. I went back to “your current security settings do not…” site and repeated the steps, rebooted and tried to download the next suggested cleaner but it does not work. Is there anything else you could suggest to solve this problem?
Thank you. I am not very computer savvy and wasn’t sure what was wrong when I was being plagued with this problem. Thanks to you it is now gone. I truly appreciate it. Wish I had something to give. Hopefully those that follow will be able to donate to you. I am broke and this computer is the only real link I have. Thank you. Truly.
Kevin,
The Malwaresbytes scan has now been running for over a week, having scanned 399000 objects and we have no idea if it is close to finishing or not. It has detected 2 trojans so far. We would like to move forward because we need to as we can’t continue to be without our computer. We rather not end the scan but we don’t know how long it will go on. Do you have a suggestion? Thanks.
I have Windows 8.1 & I can’t run the eset application. Any suggestions? Thanks!!
Are you doing it in /safe mode? Thanks
No one could tell what was wrong with my PC. The techs at Microsoft (who I pay an annual fee for) came in remotely and said they resolved this reoccurring issue multiple times before I finally took matters into my own hands and found this page. Poweliks was giving me all kind of headaches and will a simple removal tool it is gone! THANK YOU Kevin!
