This error message always pops up whenever I start my PC. I don't know what the problem is nor why it's appearing—Realtek seems to be working just fine.

    Thank yo for the screenshots, I do not see any Realtek process listed in there.

    Open File Explorer, then go to tis folder:

    C:\Users\Fangirl\AppData\Roaming\Realtek\Realtek

    In that folder is there a file named RealtekUpdate.vbs?

    if there is, right click that file and select Open With - Notepad

    Delete the contents of that file and then paste this into that file:

    Wscript.Quit

    Save that file and restart your PC and the popup error should be gone.

    So is it safe to delete the vbs file then?
