Hello,
You didn't have a fake svchost.exe that was a legit one, not it is missing from your system and can cause failures. Never do such things again.
Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool
This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.
Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.
Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:
Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!
Please attach it to your reply.
FRST search
Once again we shall use FRST for additional checks. Re-run FRST/FRST64 by double-clicking:

This fix should restore deleted svchost.exe. After that run one more FRST scan and attach scan reports.
