Need a fixlist for FRST, system seems to be having interupts


Recommended Posts

I dont think its malware but im not sure, ive ran adwcleaner, and sophros virus detection software and found nothing, might be rootkits but im not sure but I do know when I had a fixlist for FRST it fixed the stuttering I have in games when connecting. (only instance is Destiny 2 which I never had problems with before until 2021), could use some help.

Hello @keyline

I don't know who wrote a fix or why but we'd need to get some new logs. I see you were here being helped by Kevinf80 a couple weeks ago. Is this the same machine? Is it the same, similar or different issue?

 

 

Please run the following steps and post back the logs as an attachment when ready.
Temporarily disable your antivirus or other security software first. Make sure to turn it back on once the scans are completed.
Temporarily disable Microsoft SmartScreen to download software below if needed. Make sure to turn it back on once the scans are completed.
If you still have trouble downloading the software please click on Reveal Hidden Contents below for examples of how to allow the download.

When downloading with some browsers you may see a different style of screens that may block FRST from downloading. The program is safe and used hundreds of times a week by many users.

Example of Microsoft Edge blocking the download

STEP 01

  • If you already have Malwarebytes installed then open Malwarebytes and click on the Scan button. It will automatically check for updates and run a Threat Scan.
  • If you don't have Malwarebytes installed yet please download it from here and install it.
  • Once installed then open Malwarebytes and select Scan and let it run.
  • Once the scan is completed make sure you have it quarantine any detections it finds.
  • If no detections were found click on the Save results drop-down, then the Export to TXT  button, and save the file as a Text file to your desktop or other location you can find and attach that log on your next reply.
  • If there were detections then once the quarantine has completed click on the View report button, Then click the Export drop-down, then the Export to TXT  button, and save the file as a Text file to your desktop or other location you can find and attach that log on your next reply.
  • If the computer restarted to quarantine you can access the logs from the Detection History, then the History tab. Highlight the most recent scan and double-click to open it. Then click the Export drop-down, then the Export to TXT  button, and save the file as a Text file to your desktop or other location you can find and attach that log on your next reply.
  • If Malwarebytes won't run then please skip to the next step and let me know in your next reply that the scanner would not run.

STEP 02

Please download AdwCleaner by Malwarebytes and save the file to your Desktop.

  • Double-click to run the program
  • Accept the End User License Agreement.
  • Wait until the database is updated.
  • Click Scan Now.
  • When finished, if items are found please click Quarantine.
  • Your PC should reboot now if any items were found.
  • After reboot, a log file will be opened. Attach or Copy its content into your next reply.

RESTART THE COMPUTER Before running Step 3

STEP 03
Please download the Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. You can check here if you're not sure if your computer is 32-bit or 64-bit

  • Double-click to run it. When the tool opens, click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Press the Scan button.
  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
  • The first time the tool is run, it also makes another log (Addition.txt). If you've, run the tool before you need to place a check mark here each time
  • Please attach the Additions.txt log to your reply as well.
  • On your next reply, you should be attaching frst.txt and additions.txt to your post, every time.

 

Thanks

The problem im having is odd indeed when using my system day to day it is fine but when using certain applications they will lag out cause system shuddering and disk and or memory will push up too 100% usage, but nothing comes up every when i run system checks, however when running the adwcleaner right now and allowing to the kill all applications for reboot the system is running right as rain again, right now. Im really at a loss to be honest

Yes,, the Event Logs are showing some issues and program crashes. Let's do some more general cleaning and see if that helps.

Let's start out by cleaning your Web browsers and getting them back to a clean state.

I know you're using Firefox as your default browser but please go clean up Google Chrome to make sure it works well too before we clean Firefox.

 

Let me know if you have any issues cleaning up Google Chrome from that link or not.

Then we'll work on Firefox clean up and reset, then move onto other general cleaning and fixes.
