    I just tried TDS-3 and after scanning it splits out just the following:
    Scan Control Dumped @ 20.04.39 02-12-03
    RegVal Trace: RAT.Optix Pro: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    File: Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run [System Profile=c:\windows\system32\regsrv.exe]

    I tried right-clicking and deleting that key on registry but it does not work. I also lokked @msconfig and I noticed I have that c:\windows\system32\regsrv.exe @startup; I could even delete this entry from my startup but I don't know if it's an entry to delete or not.
    Any help?
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hi Tuck,

    Welcome at Wilders. :)

    That does definitely not belong in your startup.
    It is trying to fool us to believe it is a Windows file because regsvr.exe is.

    I would have guessed OptixPro from the filename alone and TDS confirming it makes it double-checked.

    After removing it from startup you should be able to remove the file. If you don't succeed, reboot into safe mode and delete it there.

    Regards,

    Pieter
