  1. How do find and get rid of hidden programs?


    For a few days now there has been a random program running hidden that plays audio of random ads... When opening up volume mixer it shows up as "try" and when I open up taskmanager it shows up as jtry.exe and another called new_.exe. If I use TaskManager to find the source folder and delete the whole thing(folder called btest located in my AppData local folder) it'll only just reappear with these same files a few minutes later. It's driving me insane because using malware removal programs don't help and uninstallers don't help How do find and get rid of hidden programs? :(

    Programs Missing From Control Panel List


    I was able to get rid of XNVIEW by downloading it and using it's own uninstaller.
    Have tried method suggested by Pyramid 10 with photoscape without success.
    Can't figure out how to do what is asked.

    Your next suggestion?

    All hidden files turned Un-hidden

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community and being part of Windows 10.

    I suggest you to re-add them to the hidden items list and check.

    Steps:

    • Right click on the folders to hide, select Properties.
    • Go to General tab, under Attributes check mark the option
      Hidden.
    • Click on Apply and on Ok.

    I suggest you not to use any third party anti-virus software. Try to use Windows Defender.

    Refer: Using Windows Defender

    Hope it helps. Feel free to contact us for further assistance on Windows Operating System, we will be happy to help you.
