Asked By GamerDude42 On

I've come across something weird in my program data that says 'audiocodek'. There's a file in there that I just can't seem to delete, and I believe I got it from a Minecraft modpack. No matter what I try, it just won't go away. What can I do?

It sounds like Malwarebytes identified the threat, which is good. If it generates something like 'malware ai' repeatedly, it definitely is something you need to sort out. Consider running a full system scan with Malwarebytes and maybe try a different antivirus tool as a second opinion.

You might want to try booting your computer into safe mode and see if you can delete the file from there. Safe mode runs minimal processes which might help you get rid of stubborn files like that.

What kind of error do you see when you try to delete the file? Also, did any antivirus software catch it? It sounds like it might be some persistent malware if it keeps coming back.
