I have some annoying malware/unwanted program on my PC and can't get rid of it so I thought of blocking its executable(s) from running. For the latter, I found How to Block an Application or .EXE from Running in Windows on How-To Geek; this describes how to create a blacklist of executables that will not be allowed to run. Unfortunately, the program's executable name contains a random number/date, meaning that it cannot be referred to using a static name such as Notepad.exe
since it changes every time. I thought of writing some kind of regular expression matching all executables that start with Shell&ServicesEngine
and end with .exe
for the blocking. How do you do it though? Note that I appreciate as well if you know how to properly solve this malware problem.
Are there any
.EXE
files inC:\Windows\Shell&ServicesEngine_09122015182218
? (Have you tried blocking those names?) Have you tried blockingNetman
andNetworkAnalserService
? – Scott – 2015-12-13T19:09:01.980Yes, there are
.exe
files in the folder but they are named after the parent folder name mostly.NetworkAnalserService
actually is one of them so it has a variable name – BullyWiiPlaza – 2015-12-15T11:38:28.327
