So is it a part of this virus ---> "explorer.exe"? Will it be resolved exactly as it was when deleting this virus?
Also, the easy solution to detecting this problem is that your computer will operate normally after you run task manager, correct?.
Generally, caution, techniques have become sophisticated and traditional methods are no longer viable.
