And I wondered if you could help me delete it, for good.
I've attached a picture of Windows defender and NOD32 4.0 scanning my computer. Defender is done, NOD32 was 99%, and it still is.

So please, help me with this.

Go into Safe Mode before trying to remove it, because I don't think you would be able to delete since it's in 'use'.

I figured out which process it was, it is the promo.exe - NTFS Volume Maintenance Utility.

EDIT: I found out where it is, it is inside the Windows folder, and when I try to delete it, it gives me this:

Oh look, it's a virus/driver. Safe mode then uninstall driver. KK?

I got rid of it now, NOD32 just randomly began to quarantine and delete all the entries and files that was related to the virus.

Lock this please. Smile
