Command Prompt and Powershell window opens and closes on startup.

Question

Every time I turn on my computer, these two windows open and then close by themselves after about 5 to 10 seconds.

I even attempted to disable every single startup process. Even after performing a clean boot, the problem persists.

Answer 1

OK, this should clear the infection.

Right click Autoruns and run as administrator

Make sure in Options that 'Hide Microsoft Entries' and 'Hide Windows Entries' are unchecked

Select the Scheduled Tasks tab

In the Quick Filter box enter: powersh

Right click on the task \Microsoft\Windows\Management\Provisioning\User and delete

In the Quick Filter box enter: ukjpb

Right click on the task \Microsoft\Windows\BitLocker\BitLocker MDM policy Refresh UKjpB and delete

Restart the computer.

After restarting, delete the following files:

C:\Windows\System32\c80570f7-0b51-4d7d-88c1-7a41bc04ec92.ps1

C:\Windows\System32\diexwyg5.vov

Hi iamsami, if you could share an Autoruns log with me, I'll help you fix the issue.

First download Autoruns:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns

Unzip and run Autoruns64.exe and accept the license agreement

When it finishes scanning, go to File > Save - Save the autoruns.arn log

Share the log on OneDrive, Google Drive, or a similar file sharing service

Post the share link
