I recently downloaded VSDC Media Editor from Softnic and then I started getting a crap ton of ads and popups. i started looking through my task manager and found KynuminitrianHelper and Kynuminitrian. It is in my program files (x86) and it doesn't show up in Windows Explorer. yet i can access it through C:\Program Files (x86)\Kynuminitrian. I don't think this is normal and comes with windows. I haven't been able to find anything on Google. When i try to close it in task manager it comes back up almost instantly. Making it impossible to remove using delete.

Any1 else have this problem and a solution?
An image from 'KynuminitrianHelper and Kynuminitrian'. Screenshot shows a suspicious program 'KynuminitrianHelper' running and discussed in an online forum thread.

I also tried to find the items you found in Task manager via Google but no luck. I'd download a copy of Malwarebytes and run that:
https://www.malwarebytes.org/

If that fails to remove anything try booting into safe mode and then try to remove the offending files.
