Windows 10 Pro
Version 21H1
OS Build 19043.1466
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor 3.70 GHz
16.0 GB (15.9 GB usable)
Hello,
Not sure, but I may have malware or a virus.
The reason I suspect it is because suddenly my normally fast computer (Ryzen 5 5600), is stumbling, freezing and generally slower.
I'm getting a lot of security errors in the Event viewer and Windows Update is totally broken and disabled and when I try to enable it I get permission denied.
I checked the cpu running temp with Core Temp and it looks good in the 50's.
I ran Microsofts latest scanner that I downloaded and ran in safe mode but it found nothing.
Does this sound like malware?
Is there anything I can do to get windows updates working?
Am I facing a HD wipe and fresh install of windows?
Thanks for your suggestions.
