techbeck Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) Looks like you got malware installed on your PC. VBS file looks very suspect. You should be able to manually delete the VBS file from the path in the screenshot, but I would do a complete malware scan of your system. If there is malware, chances are the file will come back.

Can i delete it and then do the scan or just let the scan take care of it and if it dont just delete it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmeunit Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) Looks like it's already been deleted, but its trying to run it. Remove it manually from RunOnce and related registry keys and run MalwareBytes. You can probably use CCLeaner, also, to remove from registry. Just save the registry backup. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/setupapi/run-and-runonce-registry-keys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend doing a full scan. Something got installed and you need/want to make sure nothing else is installed. Edit: Yes, does not matter if you delete before/after. Just verify that it does not come back. And do a few complete scans of your system for malware.

sc302 Veteran Posted November 30, 2018 Veteran Share Posted November 30, 2018 looks like you have a vb script trying to execute from somewhere. you will need to find it and delete the vbscript so that it cannot execute....looks like it is in that startup folder path in the error You will probably want to check for malware.

+Warwagon MVC Posted November 30, 2018 MVC Share Posted November 30, 2018 i'd recommend autoruns https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns maybe you can also use it to do a .vbs search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goretsky Supervisor Posted December 1, 2018 Supervisor Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hello, It looks like you have a remnant of some malware left over after cleaning it? You might want to check with your anti-malware (aka antivirus) company's technical support department and ask them to help you review your system to make sure everything was correctly removed.
