    Windows 10 issues - Possible Registry Malware
    « on: June 18, 2017, 11:17:53 AM »
    Okay, Hopefully you guys can figure this out cause I can't. I am running a Win 10 laptop. My issue is that no applications will install, I can't use Device Manager or any properties, and trying to refresh the system with the installation media won't work because I run into an autorun.dll error.

    Here are the requested logs:

    Hello and welcome to Computer Hope Forum. My name is Dave. I will be helping you out with your particular problem on your computer.

    1. I will be working on your Malware issues. This may or may not solve other issues you have with your machine.
    2. The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
    3. If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
    4. Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans while I am helping you.
    5. It is important that you reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
    6. Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
    7. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.

    If you can't access the internet with your infected computer you will have to download and transfer any programs to the computer you're using now and transfer them to the infected computer with a CD-RW or a USB storage device. I prefer a CD because a storage device can get infected. If you use a storage device hold the shift key down while inserting the USB storage device for about 10 secs. You will also have to transfer the logs you receive back to the good computer using the same method until we can get the computer back on-line.
    *************************************************************************
    Please run AdwCleaner again and hit the clean button.
    What happens when you try to install applications?

    *********************************************
    Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

    Warning! Once the scan is complete JRT will shut down your browser with NO warning.

    Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.

    •Temporarily disable your Antivirus and any Antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.

    •Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, right-click JRT and select Run as Administrator

    •The tool will open and start scanning your system.

    •Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.

    •On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.

    •Copy and Paste the JRT.txt log into your next message.
    *************************************************
    To Run the SFC /SCANNOW Command in Windows 10
    Click All Apps, select Windows Systems and select Command Prompt

    2. To Scan and Repair System Files
    NOTE: Scans the integrity of all protected system files and repairs the system files if needed.
    A) In the elevated command prompt, type sfc /scannow and press Enter. (see screenshot below)
    NOTE: This may take some time to finish.



    If it finds corrupted files it will ask for the Windows 10 Media. Insert your USB stick

    B) Go to step 4.

    3. To Only Verify if the System Files are Corrupted
    NOTE: Scans and only verifies the integrity of all proteced system files only.
    A) In the elevated command prompt, type sfc /verifyonly and press Enter.

    4. When the scan is complete, hopefully you will see all is ok like the screenshot below.
    NOTE: If not, then you can attempt to run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the bad file occured to fix it. You may need to repeat doing a System Restore until you find a older restore point that may work.



    5. When done, close the elevated command prompt.

      Hello, Dave.

      Thank you for taking the time to assist me.

      I have ran ADWCleaner and cleaned everything out successfully.

      It seems that some programs will install now, so, that's no longer an issue in the smaller sense. Before, the exe would run but no installation.

      Here is the JRT log:

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      As for SFC /SCANNOW, I was unable to run that as I saw "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service." I made sure I also opened Command Prompt in Admin mode.

        ESET scan was completed, took almost 10 hours to do, but it left no log file for me to post. It did delete 4 items. However, I'm still unable to use Device Manager and such properties.
