OT: W10 - Candy Crush Saga.

[Benderthe.evilrobot]

While trying to fix another problem - I found an entry for Candy Crush Saga
in a default programs/file associations menu.

There was no option to remove it in that menu and it doesn't show in the
add/remove programs menu.

Its not something I would deliberately install, so I can only assume it
infiltrated on the back of an app installer.

Any help?

Thanks.

Thanks - but it didn't show me anything that needed removing.

I cant help you, but I have seen the tv commercials for this Candy Crush
Saga, and can not imagine how anyone would want to play anything that
retarded.

Judging by the hard drive I recovered from an abandoned Dell - the sort of
person that collects virus.

The only thing that cleaned it was the same thing that cleaned up the mess
last time W10 imploded - I installed Linux and used it for a couple of days
before deleting the partitions and starting over with W10.
