I have ran the patch file and then installed Malwarebytes as stated on readme.txt but then I realized that it also installed Bright VPN. It didn’t show on Control Panel uninstall section so I needed to remove it by Revo/BCU. It also added a command to run the app on registry and it caused a message to pop up (cannot start brightvpn.exe bla bla) whenever I reboot my PC. so I also needed to delete it by using Autoruns. Obvious bloatware. So, it shook my trust a bit and I’m not sure what to do. Should I clean install Windows? Should I trust the website and ignore this incident? IDK.
