"Up8d76c_12957" was the folder where these "updates" were installed. After installing Remote Process Explorer and searching the location of the processes, I found this: I used a more general "processes that stop running when task manager opens" and I stumbled upon this thread. Strangely enough, searching the app name "update_2021112022." didn't produce any results. and would start again a bit after closing Task Manager.

To my surprise, the moment I opened task manager the processes dissapeared and CPU usage went back to normal. However since OGH doesn't allow to find more information about the processes running, I quickly went to the task manager to find, hopefully, the root of the problem. Those two strange "update" processes were using a lot of my CPU. Since OGH would show the processes that are consuming more resources, I quickly identified the culprits: I recently noted that my CPU usage was higuer than normal even when my laptop was idle. I use an HP pavillion laptop, it comes integrated with an app called "Omen Gaming Hub"(to which i'll refer as OGH for brevity) that monitors pc performance and serves as a companion for games. I was having a similar problem although the files were different. I'll keep monitoring this and keep this post updated if i see something else again.Īlso thanks everyone for your suggestions. It's been 30-40min i'm working on my PC, nothing is popping up like before, or those file is recreating like other viruses do.
#Exe unarchiver cracked#
Some people in reddit said this started when they installed cracked version of Hitman 3, I did the same too :_: so maybe this was the culprit. So i've deleted both of them (unarchiver.exe file which is about 200mb+ and ContentManagement in task scheduler)įile location ( C:\Users\Windows 10\AppData\Roaming\ unarchiver) Until i found remote process explorer which worked wellĪnd i've found something called unarchiver.exe was using 25% of my cpu means 100% on core1 of my 4 core cpu.Īnd after searching about this on google i've also found that ContentManagement in task scheduler starts this unarchiver.exe every 15min
#Exe unarchiver software#
I've tried many monitoring software, even with those software this virus treated them like task manager, So it disappeared instantly from those too
#Exe unarchiver archive#
4) Keka does everything Unarchiver can do, with no RAR errors, and handles more formats, plus Keka can also ARCHIVE and unarchive, while Unarchiver can only unarchive, so why keep two apps? 5) the company has caught on that some users are uncomfortable with their reputation, so they created a website just for Unarchiver () rather than directing users to, thinking this will help mask the fact that it is MacPaw behind the curtain.First of all you should do full scan of your drives,įor me this didn't work cause the file which was running in backgrounds can't be detect as virus even with Malwarebytes
#Exe unarchiver code#
3) source code is no longer open source ostensibly to hide what calls home are doing and sending. 2) SENTRY is integrated into Unarchiver, supposedly according to dev to allow for 'crash reports' to be sent back to fix bugs but Little Snitch shows this app 'phones home' regularly, even when there has been no errors.why? What info is being sent? See #1 above and add 1 + 1, regards companys' reputation etc. MacPaw is the same company that makes CleanMyMac X and CleanMyPC.products and company that have questionable reputation. Here's why: 1) App is now owned by MacPaw acquired from the original developer. I have removed this app from my Mac, despite at one time having used it for years.
