  1. Got Hit By A Torjan With UAC Bypass


    Hello , my name is zak

    and i've been hit by torjan planted in a program that was supposed to create keyloggers , upon launch of the program i received a message stating an error which i thought was suspicious because its one of the features of this keylogger to display an error window for a certain period of time , and to make sure it was a real error i kept launching the program i did so more than 10 times but received nothing , i tried checking task manager to see if there's anything unusual working in the background but nothing was there , i checked the start up section and nothing new was there too , but right after i launched it i noticed that i don't get the uac window upon launching task manager which was very weird , so i checked every temp file and they had these log files with dates and weird names created the same time i launched the torjan and as many as the times i did launch it , problem is i couldn't read them and i tried to modify the owner in the properties , security tab but it stated " can't open access control editor , access denied " , the log files were there on both temp files the ones stored on windows and the ones stored under user , i jumped back to the keylogger and read about it's features and it had uac bypass exploit which caught my attention , and hide task which was for 32 bits processors and would you guess it , my pc is 64 bit built but 32 installed , and the uac worked only on windows 7 so i wasn't worried but then i remembered my pc is windows 7 upgraded to windows 10 and i still receive the first windows 7 boot page that displays " click esc for boot...." , i did some googling and tried the common fixes such as booting up to safe mode and creating a new admin account and here's where something else interesting happened so i had the new admin account set and ready and had used it thrice but just as i booted to safe mode then restarted the pc it took so long to restart and then it didn't so i had so shut it down manually which i did but upon launching the admin account had a password , a password that i didn't set up something must have triggered whatever the **** was awaiting for me to do that , i also checked back on the temp files and nothing was there , i checked the installed programs on control panel nothing either , whatever this is it had the ability to detect a safe mode and launch it self right after i signed out , i still can access my main account , at this point i was desperate and i knew i'll have to re-enable windows defender so i did so through registry edit but it didn't launch , i also forgot to mention that i can't modify anything in the user account settings section in control panel , i just click it and nothing pops up at all , i also can't uninstall anything , and i cant modify the owner of any file ; tried installing AVG but just as it finishes and the window closes wsc_proxy.exe keeps running in background but nothing pops up about avg , i run the installer again and it restarts , done it several times with no outcome ; so to summarize things up , i can no longer edit the owner of any file , i can't launch windows defender and i can't install AVG , i've been locked out of a new account that i created with admin privileges and it didn't happened when i signed out 3 or four times it only did when i booted to safe mode Got Hit By A Torjan With UAC Bypass c73a048a-aa70-4aad-a97f-25eae18ec03e?upload=true.jpg and apparently the owner of every new file i create the one in the provided capture is the whole disk is now TrustedInstaller

    and i've tried using this to verify that my account still has admin privileges NET USER Administrator ;active:yes , the outcome is "The command completed successfully."

    Any Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated!

    And Sorry for the grammar mistakes , and the way the ideas are disordered i'm writing this at 5 in the morning and i haven't slept yet

    <3

    :)

    Problem with UAC in win 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. Appreciate your interest in using Windows 10.

    To disable UAC prompts, I suggest you to follow the steps provided below:

    • In the search bar, type Control Panel and press Enter.
    • Click on User Accounts and again click on User Accounts.
    • Click on Change User account control settings.
    • Provide password for the UAC prompt.
    • Drag the box from Always Notify to Never Notify and click on OK.
    • Provide password for the UAC prompt (if asked again).

    Important: Turning off UAC reduces the security of your computer and may expose you to increased risk from malicious software. We do not recommend leaving UAC disabled.

    Hope the information is helpful. Feel free to write to us for any other assistance with Windows, we’ll be glad to assist you.
