My wife has this Chinese-made Polatab Q10.1 tablet and it seems it came with a lot of nasty stuff pre-installed which I can't get rid of. Random apps install themselves out of the blue. malwarebytes found 7 problems but could only solve 2 of them. I am an experienced pc user but I'm new to tablets. I have done a lot of research and tried a lot of suggested solutions but nothing works. I'm not even sure if the device is actually technically "rooted" or not so I'm not sure I'm posting in the right place. I suspect rooting will be involved in the solution at some point, though. I'd like someone to walk me through a solution step by step and make the tablet usable. There is no data on the tablet that we would care about losing.

One thing that may help is that I am apparently "already a developer" ? Regardless, I hope someone can help get this working for my wife - she only wants it for ebooks and comics!
