Thanks All

Not that I use Edge but just looked and auto updates seem to be switched off already and now it's metered, you have to allow it by clicking the toggle switch so fingers crossed ............. :chuckle:

It quarantined it and then I removed it

Thanks guys

Already half way through using the task manager and Defender caught it as a Trojan.

Thing is, why wouldn't it have been caught from the first instance ??

Hi

I've just noticed when I turn my machine on a command box pointing to and starting winda.exe.

Is this a genuine Windows Defender exe or is it mining or a virus ?

Bree ! You are a star !! Many thanks ! :-)

Thing is tho Bree, it was working fine until Windows updated and then when I questioned the error with MS they remotely installed a new version of 10 !

Ok, so I have uninstalled the 2015+ ones and reinstalled the 2013 ones.

I will check later to see if the program installs or gets the same error msg.

Thanks

already downloaded and installed those two but when I check both System32 and SysWOW64 folders, the files in there that closely resemble the missing dll is:

After I'd installed them and installed the program with Admin rights, I got a 0xc000007b error so checked the .Net version and that's up to date.

I've had problems this week with the 1903 version and MS remotely downloaded a copy of the 1809 onto my laptop however ................. their Media Creation Tool doesn't work !! Despite several...

Will do this evening and will let you know if it works - thanks bud !

Do I just get hold of the same file from a similar machine and install...
