Windows 10: SysinternalsSuite VirusTotal svchost.exe 1/76

Hello!So, I did a clean install of Windows 11 formatted a drive as well, but in the SysinternalsSuite all svchost.exe processes show VirusTotal - 1/76 see the attachment. However, on my other 2 pcs the SysinternalsSuite VirusTotal shows 0/76 for all svchost.exe processes. Why is that? Could my laptop be infected or it's nothing to worry about? Vladislavs

So nothing to worry about. Files scan clean with onboard AV and secondary Anti-Malware programs.

 

Svchost virus?

Did your antivirus provider identify the malware? If so, did you seek their advice?

necessary boot into Safe Mode/Safe Mode with Networking to download and run the scanner or use another computer, put the EEK file on a flash drive and insert the flash drive in the infected computer...you can run the scanner from the flash drive. Other scanners
