    The program "Program" in task manager

    Hi! Today I was looking in my startup programs in task manager and, oh what do I see this program called Program. Can someone tell me what is it? Is it a virus?

    Program called "Program" in Task manager startup

    Unknown program in Task Manager-Startup Programs

    This helped me. I used the command line string to that unnamed Program to find it in RegEdit. Led me to HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run whereupon when I deleted the line, the Program line immediately deleted itself in Task Manager / Startup. Cheers.
