Windows 10: A random .vbs file pops up

during startup or on desktop it shows this type of error message: "Can Not Find Script C:\Users\s****\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$DIa6420.25547.rartemp\src\silent.vbs" Keeps randomly popping up, what causes this?

Random exe and vbs file

I recently found 2 vbs and exe files in my users roaming folder and windows defender marked one of them as a trojan so i deleted both of them but now when i start my pc two pop ups come saying they can't can't the windows script file with the path and file name on eof them is named CPqwa.bat.exe and a vbs of the respective name the other i can't remember atm also before this i ran a microsoft security scanner and it removed a laplasclipper file so i am worried my laptop might be vulnerable rn especially since i recently had my gmail compromised

 

VBS Msgbox

Denis,

• I was too lazy to compute the size programmatically. And, it the 2005 version the message box always came up hidden, so I always used 0 for the top. It's also part of my OCD to be able to control everything.
• I personally don't need it to timeout. I used this in vbs files to ask to continue to the next step, skip the next step or cancel the vbs. BTW, I added the code back in but keep it assign it to 0.
• Sound was calling Windows Media Player: WshShell.Run "C:\Users\donast\desktop\sndrec32.lnk",7,false the lnk is a shortcut on my old desktop that had: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe"
  "C:\Users\Public\Music\Wavefiles\Twilight.wav"
• Yes. The value is the number of the button in the order specified when calling it.
• Never really thought about it as all my VBS/VBA code is relatively simple and I add comments in the file as necessary to remind me what is going on. I don't usually have anyone to share my code.

FYI I use a VBS to call it. Here's a line from a test vbs I use to run your version:

choice=Wshshell.run("custommsgbox.vbs " & wscript.scriptname & " ""CopyFiles.vbs done. Continue with UnArchVista.vbs?"" ""White"" ""Black"" 40 ""Yes"" ""No"" ""Cancel""",1,true)

Copy it to a text editor to see all the spaces, etc. Took me a while back the to figure it out.

A random window is popping up

Hi,

There are several factors that may cause this issue. To narrow down the concern, we'd like to ask additional information.

• What changes have you made prior to the issue?
• What activities are you doing when the random window popping up?
• Would it be possible to send us a screenshot?
• Did the issue persist in safe mode?

For now, we suggest that you scan your computer using antivirus software to check for possible malware infection.
