Windows 10: How to do a backup on a work product that intentionally includes malware

For my job we store and analyze old malware. This naturally causes some issues with different security products, but usually I can tell them not to scan that directory.The problem now is that I'm trying to use Windows Backup to save my data to a NAS, but the files are seemingly scanned en route and that triggers on the malware directory. I haven't found any way yet to tell it to let that through, so I get repeated error messages about there being issues with the backup. I think the rest of the stuff is being backed up right, but I'd like to be able to backup all of my work, not just most of

Best way to remove problem Malware

Hi There,

I am trying to remove a bundle of Malware without success.

There is a bundle of listed programs which I try to uninstall through the typical Control Panel effort, but they remain listed there:

Buenosearch Toolbar
MyPC Backup
PC Performer
Speed Test 127
UnknownFile

I was looking at this weblink which provides a 5 step process for Buenosearch alone:
Remove Bueno Search (Removal Guide)

Not sure how much certain guides can be trusted. One of the first things I read was to download Revo Uninstaller, and I've not heard of it so I'm not sure if it's trustworthy..........

 

Did our Epson printer get hacked?

Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.
