  1. Is it a Hidden Malware, Virus, or something else?


    I have scanned my PC with Malwarebytes, Bitdefender, Roguekiller, Super Antispyware, Microsoft Defender Offline, and Microsoft Safety Scanner. But all of them detected no threats and no unwanted programs. My PC's version is 20H2, and I have updated all to the latest. I have removed Adobe Flash Player with all of its remaining in Registry and searching its hidden leftovers in Local Disk C:.


    At first, the desktop looked fine after I signed in. When I went to task view screen with either from the icon or three fingers swipe, and went back to desktop, the shortcuts have its icon label using drop shadows when I have it unticked on this option in Performance Options. Nonetheless, the icon labels have its drop shadows still when I restarted and did none. And sometimes from that task view back to desktop, Wifi suddenly disappeared, and when I signed in, for a moment I caught a glimpse of the Wifi I used but it quickly disappeared. To remove the drop shadows needs a restart to have it back to normal.


    Then whenever I checked Task Manager, the CPU and the Memory was fine but the Disk went to 100% for quite a while and I checked through the background tasks and services, the System aka ntoskrnl exe has it around 0,1 to 7% for the highest. Then the Disk has eventually decreased back to normal.


    Also I have some of the apps have its window borders or title bars white instead of the brown colour I choose. Then when I opened one one of these apps, there is a slightly error-like for a second then back to normal when I launched it. The error-like looks like vibrated black squares trying to shape the window.


    I'm not sure if it's a problem from the graphics, but I have booted to Safe Mode with Networking, there is no process of Intel or NVIDIA in Task Manager, there is still this drop shadows for the icon label on desktop if either I go to taskview or left the icon labels as it be.

    Is it a Virus or a Malware or something else?

    Hello Joes,

    There's a possibility that your device is infected with a malware causing why you're unable to delete the game on your laptop. In order for us to assist you better, we'd like to ask the following:

    • Aside from formatting the hard drive, what other troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • Have you asked your friend where did he download the games?

    To identify if your computer is infected with a virus or malware, we recommend downloading and running
    Microsoft Safety Scanner. The scanner can easily detect if there's any virus found on your device. To do so, follow the steps on this
    link.

    We are looking forward to your reply.
