Answer 1

Hi HarshTak,

Open File Explorer

Go to C:/Users/Public/Libraries/

On the View Ribbon make sure you can see file name extensions

Create a new text file and add this text to that file:

WScript.Quit

Save that text file, then rename it to (change the txt files extension to vbs):

Checks.vbs

That's it, restart your PC and that annoyance will be gone . . .

Looks like a virus. I recommend the following 2 things:

Scan using Malwarebytes:
