My problem is that after resetting my PC and installing a bunch of <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/programs-239435" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROGRAMS">PROGRAMS</a> and stuff that I needed, I opened up the Task Manager to manage which programs should Startup when turning on my PC. When I clicked on that tab, I noticed something that hadn't been there before the reset. <br/>I will upload a picture of it. My problem basically is that 1. I don't know what this is and I'm paranoid. and 2. I can't open file location or properties on it, thus I don't know how to delete it.<br/><br/>EDIT: Also, sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum, didn't really know where it should belong.<br/><br/>[attachment deleted by admin to conserve <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/space-239477" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SPACE">SPACE</a>]Hi Booolleeet, your attachment is showing up on my computer as the Driver and Software for a MUvi Go pro mini camera. This is a common malware infection vector- executables get downloaded to the temporary or appdata folders with random names, and then get registered to run at startup.<br/><br/>From the sounds of it, the file has since been deleted- perhaps by any anti-virus or malware solution you may have installed. It probably would be prudent to run more exhaustive scans or perhaps visit the virus/malware section of this forum, just to put your mind at ease The poster fixed the problem with AdwCleaner.</p></body></html>
