Hey everyone, I hope you're having a great day! I've noticed a startup process on my computer that looks suspicious to me. The executable is simply called 'Program', and its file path is 'C:Program Files (x86)DeviceMonitorPccDeviceMonitorPcc.exe'. There's even a random quotation mark at the end of the name, which adds to my concern. When I checked the DeviceMonitorPcc folder, there wasn't any .exe file there. I tried searching for 'DeviceMonitorPcc' online, but I only came across a few results, mostly in Japanese, which doesn't help since I can't read it. I'm about 99% sure this isn't something that should be running at startup. Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

Yeah, if that file doesn't exist anymore, it shouldn't be able to harm your system. But it's strange that it was there at all. Are you sure it's not anything important?
It sounds like it could be malware, honestly. Have you tried running a full virus scan yet?
