We will begin with a general scan, then should see if we manually can delete files like the one you have just analyzed
• Download and install Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
• At the end of the installation, ensure that the option "update Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware" is checked
• Lance MBAM and let Updates to download (if not doing them manually launch the program)
• Then go into the "Search" tab, check "Run a quick scan" then "Search"
• Select your hard disk "then click" Start Review "
• At the end of the scan, click View Results
• Mark all the items detected and then click Delete Selected
• Save the report
• If asked thee to restart, click Yes
• Mail in your next reply with a report appearing after the removal.
