I am unable to change the Regedit.exe name - i get an error saying 'I need permission from TrustedInstaller to make changes to this file'Honestly, I have no idea how i got this malware yesterday, I haven't even downloaded a thing in a week, i use ccleaner daily & have avast free. I never even download any programs, just steam games mostly.EDIT: I have run both adwcleaner and malwarebytes, it found some conflicts and I can run regedit now, I deleted the specified folder and CCleaner now works. I have manually deleted a reg entry that used a CMD command to open a website on bootup since all 3 programs (bytes/adw/avast) didn't get rid of it.Are there any other programs that may find other conflicts or is there anything I can do manually to make sure I'm 100% clean of anything leftover?.

Autoruns would have helped you identify and remove the entry that was opening a website at boot.Usually feeling like everything shown in autoruns is clean means your system is clean (after a reboot, of course). If Windows doesn't start the malware at boot, then nothing malicious is running.There are things like rootkits that can be nasty and hidden, but most malware doesn't include rootkits. If you're concerned, Malwarebytes has a.As always, the only way to be 100% is to backup your data and reinstall.
