Seems this issue's been resolved then. Thanks for your assistance.

Seems we're all clear if the detection from Eset is a false positive which it likely is as I think it's detecting an ancient leftover from McAfee. The errors are a little concerning unless that sort of thing is normal? The scan from msert itself detected 0 infections though. eset scan results.txt msert.log

Shoot, forgot to quote.

Step 1:No detections Step 2:No detections -Restarted computer- Step 3: Giving a quick glance over, nothing really stood out to me other than those seemingly benign error messages in these logs. (Addition and FRST txts) Will also include the first 2 logs that actually found anything, benign or not from the first time that I attempted Step 2 (AdwCleaners C00 and S00.txts): I guess it's worth mentioning but about a month ago a "generic malware" was found in Fallout Mod Manager, but I'm fairly certain that was a false positive judging by searching around and I let it stay quarantined since then anyways as it detected an ancient exe file from 5 years ago and not the actual installation. (Keep in mind I regularly scan with Malwarebytes every night before shutdown) Can't find the log for that unfortunately to further verify that. Should I do another scan with SFC and such like you suggested in your first post? FRST.txt Addition.txt AdwCleaner[C00].txt AdwCleaner[S00].txt

I'd just like to know the cause of it, Keylogger? Trojan? Bitcoin Miner? Just a weird disk error? Should I scramble to reset my passwords or something? Maybe Malware bytes premium dealt with the problem in the background and I need to check a log for that?
-
Will be doing some mild browsing(Discord(Browser)/Youtube/steam gaming in the meantime, so I'm hoping neither of those things will activate a re-occurrence. MB is running normally in premium mode now, so if that's the case hopefully it'll halt these theoretical things.

Figured I'd upload the full thing first, save us all some time if that's what you wanted. Scans start around 2020-08-12 13:17:45. I don't know enough about computers (especially since so much changes between OS versions, I came to this one from XP), so if any of these shouldn't be here/will get me haxxed or something, delete the post I guess. CBS.log

Here are the basic detail results after both scans.
-
Kind of a long one, do you want the entirety of the CBS.log and not just the point that it started the scan?

I restarted the computer and after running FRST it's fixed now? (Unless it comes back on restart or something) I don't know whether FRST or Malwarebytes Premium did it on start up but here are the logs for the FRST, Regular and Addition. Even if it's fixed, I'd like to figure out the cause and what fixed it. Computer is running much more normally now and I have far less stress for it, I practically live on this thing.

More "good news", FSRT64 is "taking a few seconds" to back up the registry. Apparently a few seconds means forever. I've forcefully closed it via task manager.

No edit function? No edit function. System is windows 8.1 pro if that helps. I'm incredibly lazy when it comes to updates so it's no wonder I'm having issues.

Whatever this thing is it's running circles around malwarebytes that it has found nothing on top of acting wonky even after a fullscan. Sadly this occurred at the same exact time as those "malwarebytes not opening proper" and "tray icon not showing up" issues started coming in enmasse around 8-8-2020 on the forum making me believe it was a false positive. -Origin is most likely from malicious gelbooru ads around the time of 8-7-2020 (Sadly I did not get the memo that the current administrator is a scumbag who collaborates with malicious "ad" services when I went back there for the first time since about a decade to look for an old joke picture for someone) Completely bypassed both noscript and uBlock Origin. -All browser-type connections sluggish and do not load initially, game internets work fine (as fine as they normally do at least) quite noticeably sluggish internet on browsers that lasts roughly about 2 minutes or more, and only on the initial starting portion of the browser. Afterwards it seems to work just fine as long as I don't close and reopen it in which the issue repeats itself. -Browsers effected Includes: Firefox, Steam, and IE -Other symptom: Attempting to access the windows firewall via clicking on it via search from the control panel makes the window explorer "not responding" until I click the x off. -Having just activated steps taken: -Malwarebytes fullscan has found nothing and is likely compromised by the fact I recently activated a burner e-mail so I could turn its premium functions on (I dare not log in to my actual e-mail with this thing ongoing). -Activating premium functions has caused it not to open now, apparently the cause does not fear the regular/scheduled scanner, but will shutdown active defense. I have not restarted since this has been done. -adwcleaner 8.0_7 only cleared out old things I never bothered with like that yahoo toolbar and other preinstalled garbage such as Cyberlink,HP, Lenovo, and WildTangent to name those. -I have not done the basic repair functions that accomodate adwcleaner. -After it did this, I noticed that my windows virus definitions had updated automatically without my input when I went to do so manually. Is this a result of adwcleaner or the malicious thing? -Next step will likely be FSRT64.
