Many users, removing the Amigo browser using ordinary means, are very surprised when the browser appears again the next time they start the computer.

To do this, you need to right-click on the MailRuUpdater.exe process and select "Open file storage location" ("Open file location"). That is, in this step you need to find the location where the MailRuUpdater.exe file is stored.
