    Suspicious Application Keeps Popping Up In Task Manager


    Hi, this problem has been going on for a while now. Theres a suspicious application that constantly keeps opening up by itself called Blanking. This suspicious application starts playing audio advertisements and multiplies on my laptop. Any way I can stop it from happening once and for all?

    :)

    Suspicious activity pop up on personal computer

    That’s a tech support scam. PSA: Tech Support Scams Pop-Ups on the Rise - Malwarebytes Labs

    How about disabling that "SYSTEM ERROR WARNING" link in your post?

    Have you sought assistance from your antimalware provider (Avast, AVG, Avira, McAfee, Norton, etc)?



    Try using the Task Manager to close your browser: How
    to Use the New Task Manager in Windows 8 or 10

    See How to stop unwanted pop-ups or homepage changes in Chrome, and How
    to reset Google Chrome settings    .

    If your issue continues see this free multi-step removal guide from Malwaretips.com: How to remove Tech Support Scam Pop-ups from Browser (Guide)

    You may not need to scan with Hitman Pro (available in trial version if you do need to use it). If scanning with AdwCleaner (step 1) and Malwarebytes Free (step 3) does not resolve your issue, you may need to reset your browsers
    as suggested in step 5.

    Regards…

    System Restore Error 0x800700AA and Task Manager

    Thank you for your response. Some of the common symptoms of (0x800700aa) are unfinished installation of Windows application, virus infections, inaccruate registry entries, corrupt system files, incompatible or outdated software or hardware, unfinished uninstalling
    of some files, clashes between the automatic update error and the computer, installing of some corrupt or infectious apps or files, etc. In this case, we suggest to run a clean boot on your computer. Kindly follow the steps provided by
    Stephanie Sal on this
    link    .

    Regarding about the Task Manager concern. Malware may prevent opening of Task Manager. So you may want to clear your computer junk files and then run a full or deep scan with your antivirus or security software or Microsoft Security Essentials. If you're
    done running those tests. We suggest to run DISM and SFC. By doing so, the task will scan for changed or misplaced files. If sfc discovers that a protected file has been overwritten or corrupted, it retrieves the correct version of the file folder, and then
    replaces the incorrect file. Kindly follow the steps below to perform the task:

    Run DISM and SFC

    • Open an Administrator CMD window. If you can’t find a way, use these steps:
      • Press CTRL+Shift+ESC to open Task Manager.
      • Click File > Run New Task.
      • Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges” .
      • Type CMD.
    • Type the following commands at the CMD prompt:
      • dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
      • sfc /scannow
    • If neither command shows a good result, go to Reset your PC.

    If none of the above options work, review the different recovery options available in Windows 10. The
    “Keep my files” option should work – Reset your PC > Option > Keep my files.

    If you're unwilling to reset the PC, you can try uninstalling the antivirus software, and do an in-place reinstall.

    Should you need further assistance, feel free to get back to us.

    Regards.

    Suspicious Application Keeps Popping Up In Task Manager

    Driver Support.exe-application error.

    Its a drive by download that somehow got on your system pretending to be software that keeps your hardware drivers updated. Its malicious. Press Windows key + X Click Task Manager Go to the Startup tab then select any entries for Driver Support then click
    Disable It might try to hide itself and appear as unknown. Look through the list carefully for any suspicious applications. If you are not sure, disable them all. Next step is to scan your computer. Follow the steps as described in the following article: How to Clean a Virus Infected Windows 10 PC
