C:\Users\PORTGA~1\AppData\Roaming\HOOLAP~1\Hoolapp.exe its shaded gray, went to look for myself and wasnt there. nigel
Dit stond opeens in me telefoon. Ik merkte al vertraging van apps of niet openbaar wilde. Na zoeken kwam dit na boven. Me alarmsysteem kunnen ze manipuleren door niet af te gaan. Hoe krijg ik dit van me Samsung?? Telefoon is net nieuw! Jeffrey
I think this is dangerous malware! I found it on my OnePlus Nord 10 as a supported web address that app selector could open apps.hoopapps.com . This phone had been compromised by a malicious agent and one of the tools used was opening the phone apps on supported browsers. PrinceDuSang
Remove it from your device. If unable continuously 'freeze', or stall it on a REGULAR basis. If this gets tiresome, trash the device, get a new one. Upgrade all security measures & move on. Life's too short all that unnecessary BS. Ben There Overit

Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the 6resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command.
