Windows 10: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\gameflt

This continues to pop up as an "Invalid Window Services". Do I have an issue with a service? Did delete it before but it still shows up.


Thank you.

:)

 

Cannot uninstall program from my computer.

hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\TRKWKS\

Hi,

Thank you for answering, no, I am talking about Defender. It
wasn't acting normal very slow. and would get "hung up" it seemed on a
full scan. So I also ran Advanced System Care pro to see what it would do. That's when I found the hkey local machine\system\current control set\Services\TrksWks\ was placed under
Settings>>>Ignore List>>> Start Optimization No matter what I do I cannot remove it. I tried to send a notice to ASC but I think my browser is messed up too. Surprised u were able to respond.
