This message is from antivirus software ESET. It happens when I turn on my computer. It seems to happen more often nowadays and the back on time gets later.

I'm having another alert with something dangerous in memory. The Win64/HackKMS.L message came up after the virus scan.

    I turned on the desktop computer. It didn't turn on at first. It turned on at the second time. Then, it instantly turned off. It came back on later.

    You can search for kms in the search bar to see if there is any related kms software, right click on the properties, find the root directory of the program and delete it.

    Or search for kms in File Explorer, find the relevant directory and delete it completely.

    This happens when I press the Power button on my computer. The computer is turning on, then turned off instantly, turning on again later.

    Hello, jisim

    Welcome to the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for your feedback. This virus tip is related to your kms software. This software is generally used for corporate or pirated windows activation. If you are a personal user, you can delete all the files in the kms software directory and see if the error disappears.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions or if I haven't explained something clearly.

    Best Regards,
