Forgot to mention, I have windows defender as my antivirus
upload the file to virus total
it might be also DirectX file….kill it and restart pc and see if it will still appear
I’m assuming you use pirated and cracked software/games?

Either Virus Total for the individual file, or you can try an online scanner for all the files on your system.

Right click in “Name”, tick “Command line” – upload
Oh no, the x-files
An exe running out of temp – usually, yes.
Terminate it, delete the whole of temp, and run a proper full scan.
X Factor

Download and run adwcleaner and you’ll get your answer
Malwarebytes download and run scan
Looks like ActiveX script running from temp folder. More then likely malware

Na thats just twitter mining bitcoin on your computer
.x extension is direct x you should running online virus scan
Use processexplorer not regular task manager so you can see.
Just reinstall windows at this point
nuke it
Looks very likely that it is one, might want to ask in one of the computer virus subreddits about it
What do you think
ADW Cleaner and HitmanPro
This is why i dont download random shit from the internet
Check scheduled task and ASEP in registry. Check running running processes and outbound net connections. Randomly named exe in temp not good
