https://www.file.net/process/autokms.exe.html From the alert you posted, it appears it is started by taskmgr.exe running as a scheduled task. The implication as such is it was legitimately installed. If the above reference doesn't apply to you or you did not explicitly install it, it is safe to assume it is malware related. Another possibility is some third party software you are using installed it.

Who is manufacturer of the laptop and whom did you purchase it from? Whereas manufacturers will use OEM licenses and many times will load "trial" software versions, neither of these fall into the category of software "cracks." I would start by contacting the source you purchased the laptop from about this situation. Also, you are using Windows Defender. I assume with "Periodic scanning" enabled. If so, you can just disable WD's Periodic scanning option. You are using Emsisoft and you shouldn't have both WD and Emsisoft realtime scanning enabled at the same time if that is the case. However, the "cracker" software issue needs to be addressed since as my above posted reference indicates, it can expose you additional malware risks.
