    This will sort things for you.

    • Save Fixlist.txt to your Downloads folder.
    • Close any apps with unsaved work.
    • Run FRST64English.exe and click "Fix".
    • The computer will reboot to complete the procedure.

    Please upload Fixlog.txt so I can check if any further action is needed.

    Hi, there's no need to reinstall, I've successfully removed this infection for other users. Please provide Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) logs for analysis.

    https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/

    Note: If you are using Edge or Chrome, SmartScreen may initially block the download. Click on the three dots next to the warning and select Keep => Click the Delete drop arrow => Keep anyway.

    • If your computer's language is not English, rename FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe
    • Run the tool, leave the default settings, and press Scan.
    • Zip the logs, FRST.txt and Addition.txt, then upload to a cloud storage service like OneDrive, Google Drive or gofile.io
    • Post the share link.

    Hi,

    May I ask if this happens after an update or recent installation of an app or software?

    If you have a recent installation of an app or software, please try to disable or remove the app and see if the PowerShell still keeps popping up.

    If you have a third-party anti-virus, please try to temporarily disable it too.

    It can be the app, software, or anti-virus apps that cause it.

    I look forward to your response.

    Stay Safe!
