Remove canoe detailed description. Baidu - what kind of program is this and how to remove it from your computer?! How to log into your computer through “Safe Mode”

Baidu is a Chinese program that can get onto your computer when downloading various software from unverified sources. Its work is that it changes the browser settings, inserts advertisements and in every possible way irritates and interferes with work. How to completely remove baidu from your computer will be discussed in this article.

How to remove baidu from computer

Let’s say right away that deletion is best done in safe mode. To do this, you need to reboot the device and press F8 at startup. You can also use the instructions on how to completely remove Chinese antivirus from your computer, which describes a similar problem.

• Launch the task manager window. In the " Processes"You need to stop all processes that have baidu in their name. Click on them with the mouse and press the button “Cancel task.”
• If the system does not allow you to work with processes and denies access, then move on to the next point.
• In the search bar of the Start menu, enter baidu. Everything that is found must be deleted. If it is not deleted, you can rename it (using the menu that appears after pressing the right mouse button) and try to delete it again. If this doesn’t work, then move on, later we’ll delete these folders after reinstalling.
• There is another way to delete folders named Baidu. To do this, we look for them in system folders Program Files, as well as Program Data and Common Files. We try to delete in the same way, if it doesn’t work, then we rename it and try deleting again. If that doesn’t work, then leave it and delete it after rebooting. Some folders of the malicious program may be hidden, so first you need to press the Alt button and go to “Tools” to the “Folder Options” item. There we put a checkmark opposite the item that will allow you to show hidden folders and files.
  
• Next, you need to download and install the CCleaner program. Downloading can be done from the developer's website absolutely free of charge.
  
• After installation CCleaner programs, launch it and go to the “Startup” section, which can be seen in the panel on the left.
• In each tab in the window on the right, we delete everything that contains the word baidu or Chinese characters in the “Publisher” field.
  
• Then you need to clean the registry. All actions in the registry must be performed very carefully, since deleting something that is not considered harmful software can greatly affect the operation of the system for the worse.
• To do this, open the registry window with the regedit command, written in the window called up by the Win + R buttons.
• In the registry window, you need to select the “Computer” line by clicking on it once.
• Then, click on the “Edit” tab and select “Find Next”.
  
• In the search window, enter Baidu and click on the “Find Next” button.
  
• You need to remove everything that contains the name Baidu (look both in the “Name” field and in the “Value” field). If the folder is not deleted, then try renaming and deleting again.
• To be sure, we need to repeat the search several times (in general, it should be about forty times) until we reach the end of the registry and the search results are zero.
• After that, in the Start menu you can see if there are any programs in Chinese there. If there is, then copy the name and also enter it in the registry search. Whatever is found is deleted.

Do some windows with hieroglyphs, rockets and shields constantly appear on your desktop? This is an antivirus developed by our Chinese brothers, which, in its essence, is exactly antivirus program. At the same time, since this software is installed without the user’s consent and independently performs actions on the computer, it can be considered malicious. In this article we will figure out how to remove the annoying Chinese virus.

The programs discussed below are presented in two varieties - Baidu And "Tencent". Both of them have similar properties and can run in parallel on the same computer. Pests are located in the appropriate folders.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Baidu Security\Baidu Antivirus\5.4.3.148966.2
C:\Program Files (x86)\Tencent\QQPCMgr\12.7.18987.205

Programs register their components in startup, the Explorer context menu, and launch processes. Let's look at deletion using Baidu as an example. Both methods given below are only the first stage; after completing it, you need to perform some more actions, but first things first.

Method 1: Uninstall using programs

To remove Chinese viruses from your computer, the easiest way is to use a program such as Revo Uninstaller. It can not only remove software, but also clean the system of remaining files and registry keys. In addition, Revo can detect those programs that are not displayed in the list, including in "Control Panels" Windows.

In nature there is also a utility AdwCleaner, with which you can try to remove pests.

Method 2: Standard system tools

Under standard means implies removal using an applet "Control Panels" "Programs and Features".

If the program is not in "Control Panels", then you need to follow one of the paths indicated above and find a file called "Uninstall". After launching it, you should do the same steps to remove it.

Additional operations

By following the above recommendations, the Chinese virus can be removed, but some files and folders may remain on the disk because they are blocked by running background processes. There will also definitely be “tails” in the form of keys in the registry. There is only one way out - boot the system into "Safe Mode". With such a download, most programs do not start, and we can remove everything unnecessary manually.

1. First of all, we turn on the display of hidden resources. This is done by pressing a button "Arrange" and selecting an item "Folder and Search Options" in any folder, in our case it is "Computer".

   

   In the settings window that opens, go to the tab "View", put the switch in position "Show hidden files, folders and disks" and click "Apply".

   

2. To search for files and folders, you can use a standard Windows function or special programs.

   We enter the name of the virus into the search - “Baidu” or “Tencent” and delete all documents and directories that we can find.

   

3. Next, go to the registry editor - press the key combination Win+R and write the command

   

   Go to the menu "Edit" and select the item "Find".

   

   Enter the name of the virus in the appropriate field and click "Find Next".

   

   After the system finds the first key, it needs to be deleted (RMB - "Delete"), and then press the key F3 to continue the search process.

   

   We do this until the editor displays a message that the search is complete.

   

   If you are afraid (or simply too lazy) to delve into the registry manually, then you can use the CCleaner program to clean up unnecessary keys.

At this point, the removal of the Chinese antivirus virus can be considered complete.

Conclusion

In conclusion, we can say that you need to be more careful when installing various programs, especially free ones, on your computer. Do not consent to the installation of additional software, uncheck all the checkboxes in the installers. These rules will help you avoid problems with the subsequent removal of any nasty stuff from the system.

If you are reading this article, then you are one of those lucky people who discovered Chinese on your computer Baidu antivirus along with several more of the same name and unnecessary programs. And most likely, you have already tried to remove them, but without success. Which is due to the cunning and persistence of their creators. In addition, in addition to the antivirus itself, malicious or adware programs like to be registered under the name Baidu, which must be removed using a certain algorithm.

Before proceeding directly to uninstalling programs, you need to start your computer in "". To do this, restart it and after loading the BIOS, click " ". Afterwards a menu will appear as in the screenshot, where select simple “ Safe mode».

Step #2. We end all Baidu processes.

If this happens, then we simply skip this process.

Step #3. Remove Baidu from Startup.

Step #4. Removing the body of the Baidu program using Windows.

1. In the Control Panel, open Programs and Features.
   
   
2. Where we look for names like those shown in the image.
   
   
3. Select the first one and click the delete icon. This will open a window with an uninstaller, the only drawback of which is that it is in Chinese. Therefore, follow the removal instructions based on our instructions in pictures.
4. In the first window that opens, click the icon as indicated by the arrow.
   
   
5. In the second.
   
   
6. Further.
   
   
7. And in the last one, click on these hieroglyphs.
   
   
8. This was the first one. Let's move on to the second one.
   In the first window, check all the boxes and click on this icon.
   
   
9. In the second.
   
   
10. In the third and last.
    
    

Actually, the process is intuitive, and if you did something wrong the first time, it will definitely work out the second time.

Step #5. Cleaning through the registry.

We repeat this with everything we find.

Having deleted everything, restart the computer and check if all files have been deleted. Remember the saved file paths taken from the “Task Manager” that you wrote down in Notepad in the second Step?

Open Notepad and Explorer and copy the file paths from Notepad into the address bar of Explorer. If there is nothing, congratulations - you did it. Baidu files have been completely deleted.

Baidu is a Chinese antivirus and that says it all. The program was developed by the creators of the largest after Google search engine. The application is distributed as a malicious program and is installed on the computer in background(silent installation) without notifying the user, and after starting it constantly monitors active processes, slowing down the computer and conflicting with installed antivirus. Many Windows users, having become a victim of such an “antivirus”, are looking for ways to remove Baidu. Today we will do this.
In general, the procedure for uninstalling Baidu is not much different from uninstalling other products, except for the absence of the uninstall.exe file in the directory with the program and its interface in Chinese, which complicates even such a simple task as clicking on the “Yes” or Ok button.”

• We complete all related Baidu processes on Windows.

To perform this action, launch the task manager. It is called via the keyboard shortcut “Ctrl+Shift+Esc” or the context menu in the Windows taskbar.

Go to the “Processes” tab and sort them by name by clicking on the name of the first column “Image name”.
Then we find all processes whose names begin with the word “baidu” and end them all in order: select the process with a mouse click and press Delete or select the “End process” command in the context menu of the process and confirm its execution in order to be able to delete the application with all traces.

An easier option to do this is to use the Process Explorer utility. In it, select the main process with the name Baidu, press Shift+Del and confirm the completion of the process tree.

• We remove the program from the computer using the built-in uninstaller through the “Taskbar” tool called “Programs and Features.”

To remove an application, open the “Control Panel” and go to “Programs and Features” - the application responsible for removing any Windows components.

Scroll down to the bottom of the list of installed ones Windows applications and find “antivirus”, focusing on its blue icon and name containing hieroglyphs.
Call the context menu of the element that is Baidu, and select the only item in the drop-down menu “Delete / Change”.

After a yellow window with a white sun inside appears, click on the white button located to the right (as in the screenshot).

After this, the Baidu uninstaller will launch on your computer. In order to remove this garbage, in the next window we also press the white button, starting the uninstallation of the antivirus from the computer.

We confirm our intentions to rid Windows of applications by clicking on the same white “Delete” button.

Afterwards, the last dialog box will appear, where we simply press a single button, analogous to the classic “OK”. There is no need to leave any checkboxes.

• We remove the second program, which is installed along with Baidu.

We launch the Windows Control Panel item called “Programs and Features” and, as with the removal of Baidu, call up the only context menu item of the remaining program with a green icon.

In the window that appears with a green heading, we also click the button located to the left that allows you to remove Baidu.

Immediately after this, the remaining program will be removed from the computer under Windows control. We wait until the process is completed.

In the last window we also click on the only button.

• We rid the computer of Chinese programs that slow down Windows operation finally.

Again, we launch the “Task Manager” using any method and try to complete the process remaining after Baidy. Typically it is protected and the operation will fail.

We reboot the computer in safe mode by pressing the F8 key and selecting the appropriate item in the menu that appears after loading the BIOS.

We go into the “Program Files” and “Program Files (x86)” directories one by one, find directories whose name begins with the phrase “Baidu” and delete them from the computer, preferably using the “Shift+Delete” combination, bypassing the trash.

After this, you can use the functionality of the CCleaner program or something similar. This utility will scan your computer for any remnants of an unsafe application and allow you to quickly remove them both from the disk and from the Windows registry.

If you happen to have the Baidu program on your computer, then you probably already guessed that this “comrade” is not so easy to deal with. Removing such malware requires a little effort. Now we'll figure it out how to remove Baidu from computer.

Baidu is a program that is installed on your computer in various ways and begins to establish its own rules on it: it immediately changes home pages in browsers, starts broadcasting its advertising to you, installs third-party extensions, and other software from the Internet without your knowledge. If you try to remove it, then most likely, without additional tricks, you will not succeed.

You can grab this “canoe” onto your computer while installing another program that was downloaded from the Internet. This Chinese brand has an antivirus of the same name and a Baidu Root application, but apparently they do not cause such harm. There is also a suspicious anti-malware application with this name. In any case, no matter what you want to remove from the above, we provide you with a solution to this problem below.

Removing Baidu manually

First of all, on the system drive, open the Program Files directory and try to find a folder named Baidu in it. It may contain a file called uninstall.exe. Launch it and perform the removal as usual. It is quite possible that such a simple action will be enough to get rid of an unwanted guest.

If it doesn’t work, then we will remove Baidu using more severe methods. Now we will show you how to do it yourself. If you don’t want to delve too deeply into this, and it will be much better for you to have everything done automatically, then you can immediately skip to the next section of the article. And if necessary, you can always look at these instructions.

Open the task manager and try to find processes such as those suggested below. They can be very easily calculated using Chinese characters.

• Baidu.exe
• BaiduAnSvc.exe
• BaiduSdTray.exe
• BaiduHips.exe
• BaiduAnTray.exe
• BaiduSdLProxy64.exe
• Bdownloader.exe

Unfortunately, files associated with these processes cannot be easily deleted.

So we will start sneaking up on the program in another way - through the Control Panel and working in Safe Mode.

And so, boot the system in Safe Mode and perform the following steps:

1. Launch the Control Panel and open the Administration section in it, then go to the Services tab. Here we need to disable all services that relate to Baidu (we have already shown above how to calculate them.

2. Open Task Manager and try to find processes that are still running. If you find something related to Baidu, feel free to right-click and select “End task”.

3. Delete all files and folders that are in any way related to Baidu.

4. Now we remove everything unnecessary from startup. To do this, you can use one of three methods:

a) Open the registry editor and edit the parameter responsible for startup. (additionally, you can search for all parameters, search query"baidu")
b) By simultaneously pressing the Win+R keys, open the “Run” window and enter the msconfig command. In the next window, open the “Startup” tab and uncheck unnecessary software.
c) In the Windows 8 or 8.1 task manager itself, open the startup tab and also disable everything unnecessary.

5. Open the settings of all your browsers and view the list installed plugins and extensions. If you find anything from Baidu, delete it. You definitely need to look into the properties of the shortcuts that launch browsers. If you find unnecessary additions, new parameters and suspicious paths are indicated, then restore everything to its original form. It is best to delete the old shortcut and create a new one from the folder where the browser is installed. Additionally, we recommend deleting all cookies and cache.

6. If any malware appears on your PC, you should always check hosts file and look at the proxy servers that are set in the connection properties (they can be viewed through the Control Panel by opening Browser or Internet Options and in the Connections section, expanding the Network Settings tab, there you will need to uncheck the box next to the “Use proxy” item if it is installed.

After all these steps, you can restart your PC and boot into normal operating mode. But we do not recommend immediately forgetting about this incident. For better reliability, you should also scan your computer with automatic utilities that can detect Baidu remnants missed during manual removal.

Removing Baidu using special utilities

And now we will tell you how you can get rid of Baidu using special software. The only difficulty with this method is that you will have to use several utilities at once, since one may not cope with its task.

To give you a better chance of finding malware modules, we recommend using this free utility, like Revo Uninstaller. It happens that this program finds and deletes something that has escaped the attention of the standard search or CCleanera. But you shouldn’t blindly trust the checks of one program; sometimes it also misses important details. Therefore, let's move on to the next means.

After checking the previous program, we recommend using the following utilities to remove malware: Hitman Pro and Malwarebytes Antimalware. We already mentioned them in earlier articles, and the verification process was also shown there in detail. The interface of such software is quite simple and clear, so it’s not difficult to figure out how to work with them. To accurately check your computer, you can also use ADWCleaner.

When you finish all the checks and delete everything that you can find manually, look again at all services and scheduler tasks (you can use CCleaner for these purposes) and look at startup. There should be no Baidu components or settings left anywhere.
