We guarantee Windows Troubles Killer removal or you get a full refund! Even if you are unable to download and run programs on your computer, we have created a special tool called Vkill that will subdue Windows Troubles Killer and allow you to remove it using SpyNoMore. Here is how:

Step 1: Download Vkill. If you cannot download Vkill directly to the infected computer, you can download it onto a clean computer and transfer it to the infected computer (by using a network or a flash drive). Click Vkill for more information on how Vkill works.

If you cannot download directly to the infected computer and you do not know how to transfer files between two computers, click here for instructions on how to restart your computer in Safe Mode with Networking. Once you are logged in Safe Mode, you can download SpyNoMore.

Step 2: Double-click Vkill several quick times in a row to disable Windows Troubles Killer. Make sure to save any unsaved work before you do that.

PLEASE NOTE: The purpose of double-clicking Vkill several times is to work around the infection's blocking ability. So make sure to keep double-clicking on Vkill until a notepad text file opens up. This text file will list the names of the processes killed. Once you see the text file, you can proceed to step 3 below. If you have clicked Vkill several times quickly and you still do not see a notepad text file open up, rename Vkill to 'iexplore' and try again.

Step 3: Once Windows Troubles Killer has been disabled by Vkill, you can download and run SpyNoMore. SpyNoMore will download updates then scan your computer and if Windows Troubles Killer is present, SNM will detect it and you will be able to see either Windows Troubles Killer or Fake Microsoft Security Essentials in the scan results. These are the same product. Please note that the free version of SpyNoMore will only show you the detections. In order to remove the infection you need to purchase a 1-year license which costs $29.95 (or $39.95 for 3 computers). In all cases, you will be able to see the infection in the free version scan results.

Step 4: After the scan is completed, click on Remove Spyware to purchase a 1-year SpyNoMore license.
