Hello and welcome back:
 
Thanks for reporting.

If the problem has been resolved with a clean reinstall, then it may be hard to track it down.
 
If you would like more help, please read the following and attach to your next reply the 3 requested logs - Diagnostic Logs (the 3 logs are: FRST.txt, Addition.txt and CheckResults.txt)

 

Thanks!

 

P.S. Since you are running SEP, is this a work/business computer, by any chance?
