    Also, I deleted all registry keys under

    reg.exe delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /f

    reg.exe delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce" /f

    reg.exe delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\spreadCpuXmr" /f

    reg.exe delete "HKCU\Software\RealVNC\vncviewer\KnownHosts" /f

    reg.exe delete "HKCU\Software\RealVNC\vncviewer\MRU" /f

    reg.exe delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\Start Page" /f



    Block the .exe , .dll , .txt , .html files using software restricting policy for the following folders under below locations


    C:\ProgramData\

    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp\

    %ROOT PATH%

    %TEMP%

    C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\

    C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\


    Note::

    after blocked in SRP, some trusted applications also are blocked and it cannot able to run, so in that case, add exclusions in SRP

    I say thanks to the authors Ken Hsu, Durgesh Sangvikar, Zhibin Zhang and Chris Navarrete of the article from that forum, for the detailed explanations of the ransomware.

    malware detected

    I’m not sure what the “META” alert indicates.
    Let’s see if resolving the malware detection will fix it.

    The malware detection may be in a browser. Any new browser extensions that need to be disabled?

    Any new programs/apps just installed that might contain adware?

    Empty temporary internet files, restart the computer, manually update WD and run a Quick Scan.

    Anything new in Startup that needs to be disabled?

    If the malware detections continue suggest you try the following free independent scanners:

    AdwCleaner: AdwCleaner

    Emsisoft Emergency Kit: Как обнаружить и удалить угрозы с помощью Emsisoft Emergency Kit | Emsisoft | Security Blog

    Other scanners that may help are listed at List
    of Malware Removal Tools


    AND/OR

    If the issue continues open Defender, look in All Detected Items and copy the name of the malware and complete file path and tell us about the malware.

    You may also want to submit a copy of the file to VirusTotal for analysis:

    Please post back in this thread if the malware issue continues.

    Good luck...
