  1. user account


    Hello,


    I recently ran Spyhunter and it came up with the following, "C:\Users\Marcos Cavendish\AppDate\Roaming\ptxoh.exe."


    That is not my name. I have no idea who that is and when I go to the directory, even after enabling hidden folders, there is nothing.

    I am at a complete loss.


    Will you please point me in the right direction as to what this is/potentially how to get rid of it. the directory and potentially an unwanted user, not the file i referenced.


    Thank you,

    Tyler

    :)

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.


    • Are you using a Microsoft account or local account?
    If you are using local account, I suggest you to follow the below steps to change the user name.
