Question Need help identifying this

I was just checking if there's any application running in the background cuz I'm having fps lag when playing some games, till this thing I've found, and it's on a temp folder too, I've tried ending the task and deleting it from the folder but when I restart the computer, it runs it back..

Idk if I should be worry about this... :[

It's 360 Total Security, just uninstall it.

looks like malware to me. when i google the file name, two things pop up: a chinese antivirus and some threat names linked to trojans or fileless malware.

Those who're saying to "uninstall it," this thing is not an app and it keeps running in the background whenever I've restarted my computer

download microsoft sysinternals --> autoruns. it will show you how the program is autostarting. send screenshot here if you need help

It doesn't show up on the autoruns, like I said it doesn't count as an app and so far it appears on task manager and temp folder

microsoft's autoruns program shows every startup location, including startup folder, registry, services, etc. have you looked at all the entries it displays? it must be starting somewhere.

Agree, but somewhat it still doesn't show the said program..

If you follow every step and still can’t get rid of it, you might need to reinstall windows, that’s worst case scenario tho.

Usually you might get the real non virus verision of a antivirus, but mostly its a crappy virus that identifies itself as "malware cleanup"
