C drive keeps have 2 folders randomly

These 2 folders keep getting created after I delete them. (The names are random but always start with the same 2 digits [ie _b and AC])

Inside both folders they create garbage files (Again random files)

I've tried CCleaner, malwarebytes, Windows defender, Avant, BitDefender and nothing finds anything wrong

 

also did a sfc /scannow and found nothing

 

Does anybody have any idea what is generating these folders and files?

Hello, Welcome to Malwarebytes.
I'm nasdaq and will be helping you.

If you can please print this topic it will make it easier for you to follow the instructions and complete all of the necessary steps in the order listed.

These folders and files are probably created by a program your run.

Let see what I can find.

Download the version of this tool for your operating system.
Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (64 bit)
Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (32 bit)
and save it to a folder on your computer's Desktop.
Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
Press Scan button.
It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please copy and paste it to your reply.
The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.

How to attach a file to your reply:
In the Reply section in the bottom of the topic Click the "more reply Options" button.

Attach the file.
Select the "Choose a File" navigate to the location of the File.
Click the file you wish to Attach.
Click Attach this file.
Click the Add reply button.

Please post the logs  for my review.

Wait for further instructions

Hi,

I check on the Drive 😄 (OSDisk) (Fixed) (Total:917.82 GB) (Free:701.71 GB) NTFS listed on the Addition.txt log.

I hope that this information will bring some light to your concerned.

----

Please download the attached Fixlist.txt file to  the same folder where the Farbar tool is running from.
The location is listed in the 3rd line of the FRST.txt log you have submitted.

Run FRST and click Fix only once and wait.

The tool will create a log (Fixlog.txt) please post it to your reply.

Let me know what problem persists.

fixlist.txt

[HelRaiZer]

Okay I did what you said, saved fixlist.txt to where the program is. Launched the program and hit fix.

 

The 2 random folders/files are still being created

 

Attached is the file

Fixlog.txt

I have also noticed that there are 2 random folders being generated in the user directory as well being filled with the same type of files.

 

These ones are hidden and I didn't see them until I unhid folders.

So I figured it out, and it's really a messed up reason.

 

RansomWare Free by CyberReason  was causing it....I uninstalled this program and all the folders vanished.

Thanks for helping
