Windows\system 32 powershell.exe Pop up during start.
Hi I need some help on understanding why I'm getting this powershell.exe pop up every time I start up my computer. Though I'm mostly wondering how to get rid of it, it's quite annoying to have to wait and close. I tried a system restore but is said it
failed because of my disk, which is quite worrying.
I appreciate your swift response, you can try the steps below.
Scheduled tasks that use Powershell can cause the Powershell window to appear periodically on your computer. We suggest that you check the Task Scheduler.
Click on Start.
In the search bar, type Task Scheduler and click on Task Scheduler in the results.
Under Active Tasks, check for any tasks that use Powershell and the scheduled time.
You can also check if there are malware in your device, kindly perform a scan, download and run the free version of malwarebytes.
