Deal Slider malware removed, Windows Script Host Error message persisting
- by Jason Decker
I somehow got "Deal Slider" which was detected by Malwarebytes, so I let the program delete it.
Now, every time I start my computer, I get the message from Windows Script Host that says: Can not find script file "C:\Users\Jason\Appdata\Local\Deal Slider\repair.js". Beep boop beep.
This is a very odd message, because I can't find any trace of Deal Slider on my system now, and the \Deal Slider\ directory doesn't even exist anymore.
I have already tried disabling WSH, but then I get a message that WSH is disabled.
I also tried changing the file association of .js and .jse to Notepad.
How can I make this error stop happening?
