I'm running windows 10 and have panda security for virus protection and just got a pop up from Panda asking if rakdos.exe is trying to access your computer I denied entry. Since win 10 is apps and you get your apps from the store on 10 it would have been part of the app download if it was essential to run the app. It has something to do with candy crush and rakdos.exe is not in my computer so when I got candy crush soda and jelly it didn't come with the app. So I would delete it if its in your computer and deny it if trying to access your computer.Just my opinion I'm not a IT tech just makes sense that if it didn't come with it you don't need it

I had the same problem but on my IPad Pro. Noticed that it was th3 candy crush jelly icon in settings but the label was rakdos. Ina few minutes it’s changed right back to candy crush but when you do a search in settings for rakdos, it comes up.

All of a sudden I can't run any King.com programs games. RAKDOS is to blame I think. I can't seem to delete it and I NEVER downloaded it. Help me get it gone please
