Just reset my computer, could someone take a look at my logs?


Recommended Posts

Hi, I posted a thread a few days ago with some suspicious behavior. I ended up doing a full reset of Windows, clearing out personal data and settings.

Eventually I noticed that windows defender and malwarebytes scans weren't completing and decided something must be wrong.

Could someone take a look at my latest logs and let me know if everything looks good? I appreciate it!

Hello @uhoh-hotdog

 

The Event Logs are showing a few errors. Not malware, but error you should review.

One being the Malwarebytes program is crashing. It may just need a clean removal and reinstall, but it could be that your Norton antivirus might be stepping on it and need exclusions setup in both programs.

You also have Scheduled Tasks without an XML file - these are not valid scheduled tasks and if you need them you should review and correct them

I would suggest you open an Elevated Admin Command Prompt and type in or copy / paste the following and press the Enter key to run them one-by-one.

ECHO Y|CHKDSK C: /F

Then restart the computer and run the following.

SFC /SCANNOW

Then run the following

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

 

Then review your Event Logs and see if you're still getting new errors or not and let me know.

Huh, I wouldn't think that a full reset would have so many issues.

As soon as Windows finished reinstalling, I uninstalled Norton and as many other preinstalled programs as I could, then ran adwcleaner to clean up the rest. I'm guessing it left some remnants. How would I clean up the scheduled tasks? In the past I just used ccleaner but I've heard that software has been compromised.

I also ran the commands you specified today. I haven't seen malwarebytes crash, but I'm a little concerned about some newer errors involving windows defender:

Date: 2021-03-21 19:47:31
Description:
Microsoft Defender Antivirus scan has been stopped before completion.
Scan Type: Antimalware
Scan Parameters: Quick Scan

I've implemented the exclusions specified in this thread: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/200162-exclusions-for-windows-defender-users/ so I'll see if that helps.

Thanks for helping me out!

Yes, depending on how or what vendor is doing the restore it can have issues.

Please download and run the Norton Removal Tool. Don't allow it to reinstall Norton

https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/v60392881?abproduct=home&abversion=current&pvid=f-home

After the restart then run the FRST program one more time and click on the Scan button and post back both new log files and we'll review to see if we still need to remove or fix anything.

Thanks @uhoh-hotdog

Unfortunately it looks like Malwarebytes is still crashing, this morning it crashed right as I was trying to run a threat scan with it.

Please use the following MBST tool to do a clean removal of Malwarebytes. For now though when it asks to reinstall Malwarebytes, decline and do not allow it to reinstall Malwarebytes

Uninstall and reinstall Malwarebytes using the Malwarebytes Support Tool

After the removal of Malwarebytes and a computer restart please run the following fix.

 

 

Please download the attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop or location where you ran FRST from.
NOTE. It's important that both files, FRST or FRST64, and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

Please make sure you disable any real time antivirus or security software before running this script. Once completed make sure you re-enable it.

NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on this particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system that cannot be undone.

Run FRST or FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
If the tool needs a restart please make sure you let the system restart normally and let the tool complete its run after restart.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt) or wherever you ran FRST from. Please attach or post it to your next reply.

Note: If the tool warned you about an outdated version please download and run the updated version.

NOTE-1:  This fix will run a scan to check that all Microsoft operating system files are valid and not corrupt and attempt to correct any invalid files. It will also run a disk check on the restart to ensure disk integrity. Depending on the speed of your computer this fix may take 30 minutes or more.

NOTE-2: As part of this fix all temporary files will be removed. If you have any open web pages that have not been bookmarked please make sure you bookmark them now as all open applications will be automatically closed. Also, make sure you know the passwords for all websites as cookies will also be removed. The use of an external password manager is highly recommended instead of using your browser to store passwords.

The following directories are emptied:

  • Windows Temp
  • Users Temp folders
  • Edge, IE, FF, Chrome and Opera caches, HTML5 storages, Cookies and History
  • Recently opened files cache
  • Flash Player cache
  • Java cache
  • Steam HTML cache
  • Explorer thumbnail and icon cache
  • BITS transfer queue (qmgr*.dat files)
  • Recycle Bin

Important: items are permanently deleted. They are not moved to quarantine. If you have any questions or concerns please ask before running this fix.

The system will be rebooted after the fix has run.

fixlist.txt

Thanks

 

 

Then once the FRST64 fix has completed and restarted the computer run FRST again and click on SCAN and make sure there is a check mark in the Addition.txt check box and post back both new logs as an attachment along with the FIXLOG.txt file.

Thanks

I set up a custom hosts file to force "safe search" on the most popular search engines. There are a lot of regional variants of google's site. I know that's not exactly standard.

Also, should I try reinstalling malwarebytes after performing the above tasks? Or would you want to see the new logs first?

 

Thanks again!

Your Intel Graphics Control Panel or Intel Graphics Command Center application has also crashed. Reinstalling it may correct that issue, or you can try a couple of reboots and make sure no new Events show up for that error anymore

I would try to go in and uninstall it. Go to Settings -> Apps and locate and uninstall it.

This error keeps coming back too. It is from your Acer Care Center. Unless you really think you need it we can probably remove that service. Otherwise you may need to download an update from Acer to reinstall it.

Do you need help with removing the Acer service ?

Yeah, I'm not sure how to remove it. Thanks!

Have you visited the Acer support page for your computer and verified that the Network, BIOS, and other drivers are all up to date?

They just have the original drivers that came preinstalled on their support page, I did update the firmware and a few other drivers through windows update though.
