Hello! 

I encoutered problem that was already answered on forum, however I cannot access the file you provided as solution to this problem. 

Let me explain it first:

  • I am using Windows 10
  • When trying to open cmd in any way in opens as a small window for a millisecond and automatically shuts down
  • Almost everybody is suggesting deleting AutoRun registry key from Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor
  • Deleting it or removing its content actually results in cmd being able to open, however when I boot Windows after that it boots into black screen with opened cmd. (like explorer.exe isn't running - and after typing "explorer" into cmd it actually boots the rest of the windows.
  • When writing only explorer.exe into AutoRun key, it opens file explorer every time I run cmd. 
  • I tried running full scan with  Malwarebytes but no threats were found.
  • I would like to avoid reinstalling whole Windows.

Thank you very much for answering me!
