    With Process Explorer you can visualize the processes that are making the CPU work hard

    chkdsk /f to perform a disk check
    sfc /scannow to perform a system file check.

    All this is not absolutely necessary and can be disabled, unchecked:

    You can remove Google and Auslogics tasks.

    SoundMax depends on whether you need it.

    What I have bolded belongs to Microsoft Security Essentials, but you have Avira, uninstall or uncheck it, then a file not found, delete it

    1. For the rest of your question

      Look at what is running with Process Explorer

      Then you can run a CHKDSK /F and an SFC /SCANNOW with CMD

      I don't understand...

          What programs do you have checked under "Logon" and "Scheduled tasks" in Autoruns?

          Check what is running with Process Explorer

          Then you can run a CHKDSK /F and an SFC /SCANNOW with CMD.
          1. Just defragmented, I didn't do it because I downloaded the software but I didn't continue because I didn't know what to do and then I forgot to mention it.
            1. Moderator
              Analyze and perform a defragmentation with optimization of drive C: using Auslogics Disk Defrag

              Then defrag the registry with Registry Defrag, a restart is required for the registry.
          2. Moderator
            Did you skip any steps somewhere, defragmented and all?

            The PC should be working better now?

            Resolved?

              Look with Autoruns, it seems you have scheduled tasks pointing to Chrome files that do not exist.

              In "Scheduled tasks", these lines should normally be yellow, delete them.

              PS: You should not delete everything that is yellow in Autoruns.

              Then you can keep RegRun Reanimator, it can be useful for finding and eliminating malware, click on "False positive" for the healthy items when there are any, it will no longer detect them.

              If you uninstall RegRun Reanimator, just before, you can click on "Uninstall Partizan" (in the program).

              And you can click on this .reg file that restores the Bootexecute key to default if it is not:

              https://www.cjoint.com/c/DIwp0hjRA6Y

              You can click on the .reg file even if you keep RegRun Reanimator.
              1. In Scheduled tasks, I have one line in pink and one in yellow.

                Rose means that the file is not digitally signed.

                If it's a trusted source file, it's fine.

                But uncheck things like Adobe, Piriform, most unnecessary ones, etc...

              Not much, no surprise.

              You can uninstall Spybot, it's unnecessary

              Install ZHPFix

              Import the following script and click on GO

              Script ZHPFix
              O87 - FAEL: "{0D971C18-BFF1-49DA-895B-E4D0FF5E14DD}" [In-None-P6-TRUE] .(...) -- C:\Program Files\GoforFiles\goforfilesdl.exe (.not file.) =>PUP.Optional.YourFileDownloader

              EmptyCLSID
              EmptyFlash
              EmptyTemp


              You can then remove these tools with DelFix

              You can keep RegRun Reanimator, it can be useful for finding and eliminating malware, click on "False positive" for the safe items when there are any, it won't detect them anymore.

              If you uninstall RegRun Reanimator, just before, you can click on "Uninstall Partizan" (in the program).

              And you can click on this .reg file that resets the Bootexecute key to default if it's not:

              https://www.cjoint.com/c/DIwp0hjRA6Y

              You can click on the .reg file even if you keep RegRun Reanimator.

                  Once the report is open, go to File -> Save As -> Desktop.

                  It's not normal, there might be a software conflict, disable your antivirus and relaunch the program as an administrator if UAC is enabled.

                According to what I've seen, your PC doesn't seem infected at first glance.

                After a quick check with Autoruns, to disable unnecessary things, especially in the "Logon" and "Scheduled Tasks" tabs.

                Do some cleaning:

                ATF-Cleaner files

                Files, Registry CCleaner Portable < - Disable its monitoring.

                Registry Wise Registry Cleaner < - Check if it has added any scheduled task with Autoruns and disable it.

                Defragment:

                Files Auslogics Disk Defrag Portable

                Registry Auslogics Registry Defrag

                If you still have browser issues, or any others, if you want me to investigate further with ZHPDiag,

                Download ZHPDiag https://nicolascoolman.eu

                Install it.

                Click on "Scan"

                Wait during the analysis.

                It creates a log on the desktop.

                Post it on Cjoint and give us the Cjoint link.

                    I don't see it either. It might be a bug or the bot blocking something; you can send it to me in a private message.
                2. re
                  I restored and had to open IE because I couldn't open Google Chrome anymore.
                  However, I'm having a bit of trouble following your tutorial when you talk about an item, sorry but I'm a novice at this.

                  Do I need to redo RegRun Reanimator??
                  1. Moderator
                    The 6 items need to be detected again,

                    Can you copy the results for me?
                3. There were 6 if I remember correctly, but I don't quite understand the tutorial.
                  1. Moderator
                    Had?

                    If you deleted something you shouldn't have, press Windows+R, and type: RSTRUI

                    Restore to the date of the RegRun analysis.

                    If you only deleted the bad ones, that's OK,

                    If you didn't delete anything, you can give me the list contained in the text files you create by "Save to file" by default in "Documents"

                    Otherwise, to proceed, check with Autoruns as I said, what's possibly excessive during a session, keep the list minimal, uncheck what's good and unnecessary, delete what's bad or obsolete.
                  2. Moderator
                    When you see an item, you have the choice, by clicking on Copy to clipboard to copy the result to the clipboard, or Save to file, to copy the result to a text file.

                    You do this for each detected item so that I can see what there is and tell you if it is safe to delete.

                    Navigate with the arrow from the first to the last. (do not choose an action in the meantime)
