I found some suspicious entries in my registry while using Autoruns, and I'm unsure if they're malware. They seem to be originating from a temp folder, which alarms me. I can't find any information about these entries online, and I even uploaded a screenshot since typing everything out would be a hassle. The image upload feature is disabled here, but I'm looking for any insight or similar experiences. Has anyone else come across something like this?

It’s definitely concerning when you see entries starting from a temp folder. That’s not typical for legit programs. You should check if those paths actually exist or if they’re just placeholders. Sometimes, apps might run temporary setups but usually clean up after themselves. If they keep reappearing, it's a sign something might not be right.
If you're worried about malware, I’d really suggest following the malware guide for removal steps. Just browsing through the registry can make anyone paranoid, so don’t stress too much. But keeping an eye on those entries is definitely smart.
