Windows 7 - Carbon Black Sensor Creating 10s of thousands of files using up all my CPU

I cleaned the folder out again and tried this morning. Computer loads in like 15 seconds, it's amazing. But within 10 seconds there was already 2,000 files created.

You could alter the access permissions for the folder C:\Windows\CarbonBlack\store so that write-access is denied to everyone.

There's nothing I can figure out to delete CarbonBlack, it requires administrative permissions and I can't even locate it in the regedit to do a forced uninstall.

Please elaborate:  What happens when you go to Programs and Features and attempt to uninstall Carbon Black Sensor in the usual way?   If you get an error message, please provide the complete text.

Please elaborate:   "it requires administrative permissions" 

• Are you logged on with a user account that has "computer administrator" privileges?
• If you're not logged on as a user with "administrator" privileges, a  task that requires such permissions normally gives you the opportunity to grant permission by providing the account name and password of an administrator account.  Did you get a pop-up window requesting this information?

Hi, thanks for the reply. When I try to uninstall it from the uninstall.exe I get "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

When I try to do it from the 'Programs and Features' I get "The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if the Windows Installer is not currently installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance."

I cleaned the folder out again and tried this morning. Computer loads in like 15 seconds, it's amazing. But within 10 seconds there was already 2,000 files created and I just restarted the computer and booted in safe mode. Think there is some hidden malware or something? When I run a disk scan every thing checks out, all the drivers respond with saying they're up to date, malwarebytes doesn't find anything. Only thing that finds something is Symantec Endpoint but it says it's quarantined.

As a first step I would launch the Task Manager and disable each and every task under the Startup tab.
