Hello, first post and first virus (that I know about) that I have questions about. I have a file that randomly appears in my Temp folder with different names each time like eftrusy.exe. I use Glasswire to make me aware of what is trying to reach the internet. Months ago it gave me a notification that Notepad+ wanted access and I let it. Shortly after that I would randomly have a Windows Command Process pop up that wanted to install an .exe file and would not let me cancel out, it would just pop up again. I would force shut off my computer, reboot and delete that file in my temp folder that it wanted to install. But something would keep recreating that file maybe 30 minutes to 3 days later. So something happened a week ago and the prompts stopped coming up, but now Glasswire is from time to time asks for permissions to allow Notepad+ to reach the internet again. I have run the build in malware that comes with Windows 10 but it finds no problem. Is there a way to find what original .exe file is used to create these .exe files thatget generated in my Temp folder? In the property details you can see the original file name that created it, but I can never seem to find it. Thanks!
