There's no reason to think it's Microsoft doing that. I suggest running disk and malware checks.
Looks like there's no PC Health Check App currently available at that link.
I run Quick Scan almost everyday before power off and full scan at sundays, it never found anything
Have just run W-Defender full scan and offline scan and found no prob at all. My current video drivers were auto installed by the W10 due the GeForce site failure, W10 asked if I want they installed the video drivers.I can run this Malwarebytes standalone or it a W-Defender substitute that run full time ?
That is what I guessed, W10 drivers for video cards and other peripherals are always old and out of date, they are not even a last resort. Video card drivers used to have be completely uninstalled then special cleaner run to get rid of the extra bits before installing new drivers. Microsoft installs old drivers on top of the new resulting in a mix of *.dll, *.msi, and *.sys files, no wonder people have problems. Just because a computer says "do it" you say OK? Doesn't anyone have free will anymore?Or you can be like my brother and say "What does this do?"Malwarebytes is different than W-Defender, it is designed to run at the same time. W-Defender is an anti-virus, Malwarebytes is an anti-malware. Browser hijackers, adware, spyware, etc. are not viruses. W-Defender doesn't care about them or even look for them. All those programs that are attached to free games are not a virus but will really screw up your computer anyway. At one time my cousin installed all sorts of free stuff and her computer was so full of adware programs that it would barely boot.Many (all) sites that offer to scan your computer for free install spyware then report that your computer is so filled up with malicious programs that only they can remove it - for a fee. Only the well know established anti-virus sites and Malwarebytes are OK to use for online scans.Since you found hidden pornography or child porn on your computer then you probably have a hidden program that runs in the background that is part of a porn distributed computing network without knowing it. Has your router been unusually active lately or internet seem slower than usual? W-Defender doesn't monitor outgoing traffic which is why I don't use it. A real firewall monitors incoming and outgoing so if an unknown program tries to send info then a pop-up asks if this is OK.At this point it may be wise to do a clean install of W10. Backup your data to a USB hard drive. Track down fresh versions of the software programs, make sure you have all your passwords then wipe that damn disk for a clean start.Do this to register W10 and re-install. It works even if you are not replacing parts:https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=177478.msg1867705#msg1867705
You say so much nonsense that its not clear how Malwarebytes run, seems it run full time together with W-Defender.
Not nonsense, please read slowly. It could be language barrier and my inability to communicate.Yes, Malwarebytes runs full time with W-Defender.
OK I will install this pgm since its free, I sure it will found nothing.
In last months in my PC W10 has begin doing unsolicited actions on my personal files, some weeks ago it made invisible a folder with naked babes...
Maybe it will find more naked babes Or did I not understand and you had a personal folder filled with naked babes (you made it and wanted it) and W10 made the folder invisible. I assumed someone else put the folder on your computer and made it invisible.
I aware there is some men that dont like babes, they are everywhere.Seems this Malwarebytes are only 14 days demo disappointing.
Umm there's a free version. Premium is free for the 14 days.I'll pay for it and not all the other bloated , machine slowing anti virus junk.Even CCleaner got cought doing shit, Avast too for tracking etc.I'm done.
This Malwarebytes is a little intrusive to my taste it run all the time and posted a menu on the W security page, I will let it expire and go.
