Computer running a little Sluggish


Recommended Posts

Hey all, my computer has been running a bit sluggish. I'm not sure if I have malware. I scanned with Malwarebytes and it found no threats. But, I know that Malwarebytes can't find everything. Any other suggestions for scanning deeper for malware? Attached is the Malwarebytes Scan Report and the FRST scan.
