[bigbcool]

What is it deleting?

What is it deleting?

It did not delete anything maybe because it was unrecognized but not guaranteed virus but still thinks it might be bad

CMD is DOS or the old windows command shell

It's probably a false positive unless your system has really been compromised. Scan using Windows defender or something else

The command it is executing is to remove directories. So whatever it is is in fact deleting things. The first two are specifying to delete all files and sub folders in the directory.

oops i windows defender is disabled and i totally forgot how to enable it and disable the anti-virus i use
you cant have 2 anti-viruses at once

so sense i could not do a scan with windows defender i did a scan in the ENTIRE WINDOWS FOLDER which is where the "unrecganized file" would have been deep down in it and what do you know? nothing found! what was wrong sometimes the folder scan is wierd
lol should i switch to norton or something ;-;

You can try using a norton boot recovery tool

See if that picks anything up.

Well that is a keylogger most likely, it says so too.

Secure your files and start fresh, if you want to avoid a range of specific troubleshooting steps. Then activate Windows Defender and just play by the book

In addition, and besides anything you do with your PC, change ALL account passwords after removing this threat. Or better yet get yourself a KeePass to hash everything.

[Rock N Roll Rebel]

the only virus protection you need in windows defender and Malwarebytes that will keep you safe

 

[micropage7]

you need to look at full path of it c:\user\,,,\,..,\file.ext before suspecting further more

Did you read my post, or? If this was a keylogger, you have been logged and your online accounts are compromised.

also i deleated the "virus" which i dont think was a virus cause plenty of people use that app
mostly streams as it was a bongo cat face cam ;-;

Not sure who you are reassuring. The fact remains, it was a keylogger and therefore your details are compromised, or possibly so.

You might THINK otherwise, but you or I simply don't know. So your reassurance serves mostly for yourself. I don't care... I'm just telling you what risk you are now running: identity fraud, for example. If your accounts are 2FA guarded, and your 2FA happens over email... better change that password right now. Its not like someone will go hunting for your specific account, your details just end up in large files that get sold to highest bidder.

This is big business make no mistake.

Passwords... notepad? What? You really don't get it do you.

Do you visit the internet and log in on accounts on that machine? If yes. Then change all passwords. Or don't, whatever floats your boat. But denial won't save you. 'Pretty sure' tells me you don't know shit.

You sound like the guy saying 'oh but the Check Engine light always burns, its fine!' before ever checking the engine.

The irony: if you would save your passwords in Notepad, and then only copied them into your browser since that warning in your virus scanner, you would have been safer Note; its still not a good practice

Dude for the last freaking time i checked it in virus total IT DOES NOT DO A PASSWORD LOG OR SOME CRAP OK
virus total is very reliable and it tells you the behaviour of a virus or app or what seems to be a virus IT DID NOT DO ANY PASSWORD HACKS OK?!??!?!?

Okay. But I will have you know that even though Google took over the company, it aggregates scanners from only Symantec (one source) and even though it is owned since 2015 does not appear in any top 10 antivirus anywhere.

You assume a lot, I hope you're aware.
