Here's how you can do it: - Open the Command Prompt as an administrator. - Type sfc /scannow and press Enter. - Wait for the scan to complete and follow any on-screen instructions. 3. Autoruns: Use the Autoruns utility from Sysinternals (Microsoft) to check for any suspicious entries that might be related to the DLL. You can disable or delete these entries. - Download Autoruns from the official Microsoft website. - Run Autoruns as an administrator and look for any entries related to "ansdp.dll." 4.

Sometimes, certain malware can hide from specific antivirus programs. 6. Uninstall Suspicious Programs: If you recently installed any new software around the time this issue started, consider uninstalling them to see if the problem resolves. If these steps don't resolve the issue, you may need to gather more information about this specific DLL file "ansdp.dll" for further analysis.
