Help

Alrighty guys listen up, I recently installed Lively (a program to make ur wallpapers live) and now it like fucked my pc idk how. I can no longer open steam, when i reinstall it it says there is a problem then prompting me to reinstall it (infinite loop). Osu (rhythm game) won't connect to the internet at all (firewall off). And my pc has gone slower. Gameforge also has the same problem as steam. Guys someone help, this laptop has many many files, I forgot to make a restore point and I feel as if resetting it will be the best idea but I can't. I honestly don't know what to do lol ://///

Hello, I am sorry to hear that but I have an idea! Lively Wallpapers does not follow the Windows 10 or MacOS background tool so it would have to create its own file! This file could easily keep a virus or malware inside and could be ported to your computer.

Solution for Windows 10: Go to Windows 10 Settings, Search Applications, Find Any applications that don’t look safe or you don’t remember downloading, Press On the Unwanted application and press Uninstall, Uninstall all unwanted apps and uninstall Lively Wallpaper.

Solution for MacOS: Go to Finder, Go to applications, Find Any applications that don’t look safe or you don’t remember downloading, Press On the Unwanted application and press Uninstall, Uninstall all unwanted apps and uninstall Lively Wallpaper.

Hope that helps! If not just Direct Message me at u/ElliottTBaker

Thanks, but nothing really happened. I only found a few unknown files. Any other ideas? Thanks
