Hey everyone, I downloaded Jdownloader2 from the jdownloader dot org site, accidentally downloaded the one ‘with optional software offers to support the project’ and it fucking downloaded a virus onto my system.
It literally disabled windows security entirely, I cannot access windows security, SecurityHealthSetup wont run, nothing works.
What the fuck?
edit: The devs and community have been super helpful in trying to help me fix this, thank you everyone!
edit: I downloaded the file from the mega nz link, im assuming that was the one without adware, which is why i was never asked for adware in the installer anyways. Sorry for providing wrong information initially, I assumed that I must have downloaded the adware version considering i got a virus, but on second look, I'm pretty sure I downloaded the alternative installer
edit: my chrome still says 'your browser is managed by your organization' after multiple system restores to older versions. I would HAVE to perform a clean windows reinstall for the malware to completely go away.
for anyone facing issues/have faced issues with the recent jdownloader website compromise, i would highly recommend doing a fresh windows install, and backing up your files before you do so
