Hi there,

Open an admin Command Prompt window and run:

schtasks /delete /tn "\Window Update"

Press Enter.

Type "Y" when asked for confirmation.

And then run:

DEL "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Updates\Run.vbs" /A

Post the screenshot of the output window.

Hi mhxd.rzn,

I'm Dyari. Thanks for reaching out. I will be happy to assist you in this regard.

Kindly access the link below, click on Download Autoruns and run the Autorun64 tool after extracting it:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/d...

Then, in the filter box, type vbs. If it finds Runs.vbs, right click on it and delete it.

After that, reboot your computer to see if the message will pop up or not.

Please feel free to ask if you need further assistance.

    You're welcome. Download Malwarebytes (for a 2nd opinion scan) and run a full scan, just in case Defender has been compromised.
