A user reports that their computer is significantly slower and displaying unusual pop-ups.
Which action should be prioritized to address potential malware infection?
Restart the computer to improve performance.
Reset the web browser settings to default.
Check for updates to the operating system.
Run a full system scan with updated anti-malware software.
Running a full scan with an up-to-date anti-malware solution is essential because these tools are specifically designed to identify and eliminate malware threats effectively.
In contrast, restarting the computer may provide temporary relief but does not address the underlying infection. Resetting browser settings might help with web-related issues but won't remove all types of malware that can reside elsewhere in the system.
