    how to get rid of graftor? and how to stop usb from disable at reboot?


    Hello guys

    First of all my laptop seems to have several problems and i don't know if they are linked or not. sorry
    its not an old laptop but in this short time it made more problems than my tower in some years!

    specs
    Lenovo Yoga 500-15IBD
    8 gb ram (no idea what brand laptop)
    win 10 home
    some dedicated grafic card


    let me describe the first problem:
    Whenever i start my laptop no usb device works. This includes mouse touchscreen and any other usb device.
    So without any further research i went to device manager and found out that my

    Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host controller - 1.0 Microsoft

    is disabled and that i can click on enable. It was weird because the laptop just worked fine for like one year and since another year i got this problem and i can't fix it. so at each startup i first have to enable this by hand.... which is really annoying. i did google for it but found no working fix. Lenovo seems to have many problems with that and maybe for this problem u will send me to theyr forum. but since i am here for graftor i thought i might aswell ask you guys about it. because i never updated lenovo stufff and it worked for a year. so my gibbs guts tell me it happened while a microsoft update! I tried many updates since then uninstall driver install it new nothing seems to work. once i reboot i have to activate it by hand again...

    ok im a nerd so i just do it once a day and let the laptop run xD but it IS annoying so help would be appreciated.

    now to the more severe problem 2:

    what is wrong:
    -suddenly my computer went slow. like really slow. like really super slow *Biggrin
    even if you search for a program bottom left corner it sometimes has like 10 sec delay until you can go to win
    update or command promt and so on. the funny thing is the longer the computer runs the faster it gets. just
    sometimes when u are writing in word it has the same delay.... which again is very annoying as a student.

    -at reboot i noticed the command promt opens itself like 4 times and disappears again.(fixed by reinstall)

    -desktop behaves weird: icons disappear for a few seconds. same happens for tasklist. there is the show hidden items arrow right? if i open it there are lets say 6 programs running. now comes a square from alone... without me clicking anything. it first surrounds the first program as if i click on it then wanders through all of them. as if it scans them. and i use pc for a long time never saw that happening.

    what i tried to fix:

    well im a former pro gamer so i did the routine stuff when a computer becomes slow. ram stresstest hd stresstest.... ok hardware seems to be fine.

    next i installed windows new... no change it actually got worse. after reinstalling windows first thing i did was to install google chrome (sorry guys) then bitdefender and adaware. both free versions.

    and now i know why my computer is probably slow. my bitdefender had the following message:
    on access scan: Item was blocked. Threat name Gen:Variant.Graftor.574961

    Path: \device\harddiskVolume3\User\(my username)\Appdata\local\microsoft\onedrive\19.043.0304.0007\updateringsettings.dll.

    well first i thought oh nice it got blocked... then i saw the virus was in my onedrive Oo
    that explains why reinstalling windows did not help at all. so i tried to delete all my onedrive files...and the online recycle bin just to be on the safe side.
    so graftor can hide in there but you probably know that right?

    so i took my main computer away from onedrive since he runs at normal speed. laptop i use for university only.

    after all this i did a new windows installation. now its as described. slow at start... then it becomes faster. but it takes like 30 minutes to be at normal speed. and my desktop items still flicker away sometimes. same for the task list. it just does weird stuff on its own.

    then i did some research and the first thing i read is that graftor is some super virus by a famous group for commercial use and most people dont even realize they are infected by it because it masks itself as a genuine program.

    i tried a few removal tools no luck. i tried install win again since i got rid of one drive. no luck


    so there are 2 options: 1 i disinfected my system and the problems i have come from elsewhere.
    2 it just blocked one part of graftor and it is still causing my problems.

    so yeah i did sfc /scannow

    Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
    For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at
    windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example e. For offline
    repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag.

    so yeah i got corrupt files after a new install? weird ... this cbs Log is like HUGE and no idea what to do with it.

    i think i came quite far alone but now im at my end...

    but hardware seems not damaged i used stresstests from toms hardware. cc cleaner. spyware smth free for a few days. any ideas what to try next?

    :)

    Disable "Power Surge on USB" message

    Hi David,

    If the system detects that a USB port is going over the power limit, the system is set to notify the user by default. However, since you mentioned that you're still getting the notification after you disabled the alerts, we suggest following these steps
    instead:

    • Right-click the Start button.
    • Choose Device Manager.
    • Click the drop-down arrow beside Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    • Right-click anything that has USB Host Controller in its name, and select
      Properties.
    • Go to the Driver tab and select Uninstall.
    • Restart your computer. The driver will be reinstalled automatically.

    Let us know if the error notification disappears after following these steps.
