I have what I'm pretty sure is a virus called almoristics service. I have tried Malwarebytes, a windows defender offline scan and manually deleting things, but cant seem to get it to go away. Any suggestions? I would prefer not to reinstall Windows as I'm not sure how to.

Thanks.

    Hello Sir. I actually had the same problem mentioned above. I happened to find the same Almoristic application within my computer programs. It seems my antivirus Kapersky managed to successfully disinfect my device but I actually want to make sure it properly did it.

    As I followed the steps you suggested, there it is a download link for my FRST.txt and Addition.txt files. 

    Download link: https://gofile.io/d/YDZjTo

    I will patiently wait for your reply.

    With Regards,

    Federico.

    Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool 64-bit (FRST64.exe)

    https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/

     

    Note: If Microsoft Edge or Chrome mislabels the Farbar Scanner executable as PUA/malware, choose to keep it by tapping … in the bottom bar, choosing Keep, and then choosing Keep anyway in the dialog that appears.

    See this screenshot: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/media/microsoft-edge-security-download-interruptions/dowload-was-blocked.png. It's a safe tool used in most antimalware forums.

     

    Rename FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe.

     

    Run the program. Don't modify any options. Click "Scan".

     

    Add the two logs, FRST.txt and Addition.txt, to a Zip archive, upload them to GoFile.io and share the link here.

    GOOGLE Translation of Basilio Germanà's post

    I initially also tried to delete it manually but there is no way to do it, you have to reinstall Windows by going to settings and doing a factory reset, but first do a backup, this way you will have removed the virus 100%, at least I did it like this then I don't know if there are other easier methods, you could try using Bitdefender to delete Almoristics Service but I don't know if it will definitely remove it, try it

    Actually if the victim just follow's Ramesh Srinivasan [VM]'s instructions, most likely they will not need to resort to such action.

    In realtà, se la vittima seguisse semplicemente le istruzioni di Ramesh Srinivasan, molto probabilmente non avrebbe bisogno di ricorrere a tale azione.
