fuck this shit I might do a factory reset it’s just way too hectic, and yes I tried a lot of scanners and malware software but nothing scans this shit and it just keeps using my pc for mining fuck this shit
Boot to safe mode, delete the folder, reboot normally.
What scanners have you used?
Have you checked your startup programs and scheduled tasks? Does that program or any scripts appear there?
What real-time AV are you using? What scanners have you tried? Both HitmanPro and Kaspersky Virus Removal? Have you tried killing the process that is running this executable via process hacker and also tried using Revo Uninstaller? This guide may be helpful for doing so: https://www.reddit.com/r/antivirus/comments/vdxx5z/comment/icnrq1c/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
These icons are so cute though! Why did they put these on malware? Lol
Also check the registry. It could have added a key to startup Regustry hive for persistence so even if you delete the offending file or directory it’ll just pop right back up. Also check autoruns.
What AV do you use? Also I think you should clean install
Use this scanner, it is specially designed for such things. Please let us know if it worked or not.
Can the local geek squad or computer store help if you pay them a fee ? Fix it .
I feel your pain and frustration with that
Boot into Safe Mode and delete the folder
Try Bitdefender. It’s often really mean to Crypto mining software. Or run windows recovery environment. Or offline scanning.
It’s a rootkit. Have you tried Malwarebytes premium to remove this? Do a rootkit scan; this might solve your problem!
Try every single rootkit scanner because rootkits are very difficult to remove. I think it will never be free because this has happened to me.
You can learn about rootkits and search for them online.
But there is hope; you can try installing many rootkit removal tools.
Shit,that is fucked up.
That shit should be killed in the fucking task manager,and a fucking good Av should detect that .
Met this before, it was fucking annoying. When you go to safe mode, please delete the apps from same company also, RAV Antivirus, RAV VPN, SaferWeb(or whatever that is)(bet you have them lol). RAV Antivirus prevents(?) you from removing it. Those are the backups(?), Altruistic might comeback if you don’t delete them soon.
Goodluck!
(those downloaded themselves when i was trying to download Nox, clearly, it was malware)
I just found this, and that’s a shame because I really liked using custom cursors. : (
OP has made new posts rather than comment updates, issue is resolved:
https://www.reddit.com/r/antivirus/comments/x7naq1/fucking_found_it_now_im_deleting_it_fuck_yessss/
It’s just not going away and no scans are detecting it basically and even if I try to end the task it won’t work
Buy a new laptop!? That would be an absolute waste of money and resources over absolutely nothing, and something OP has since resolved!
I cleared it all out with the Hitmanpro antivirus and it worked like a charm it found the virus and I finally removed it
That’s awesome lol! Thank you for sharing the updates. I am betting that utweb_installer is what dropped that payload on his pc.
Did you try killing it with process hacker? After you kill it with process hacker use revo to delete the directory. Make sure to use process hacker, as it can kill processes that task manager can’t. What scanners have you used thus far?
