searchqu and search nu got installed on my laptop, but I think I have successfully removed them. But now I have found 3 related files in C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch folder. The names are: SEARCHQU TOOLBAR UNINSTALL.EX-2DC9C271.pf, SEARCHQUMEDIABAR.EXE-24754703.pf, and SETUPDATAMNGR_SEARCHQU.EXE-037068A3.pf. Are these dangerous? Can I just delete them? Should I ignore them?

Gekozen oplossing

Yes, you can remove the files in the prefetch folder.
Those are used to optimize the loading and startup of programs and will be regenerated if required.
