recently this message keeps appearing "can not find script file "c:\windows\system32\c". and when it appears (every minute or so if I closed it) it's always six of them together (as in the screenshots).
I have windows 11 installed.

Solutions I tried:

  • Scanned my device with several Antiviurs programs, but nothing was found.
  • Used "Microsoft defender" offline scan.
  • Googled the problem and tried "Maintenance.vbs" and similar solutions, but nothing.

Thanks in advance.

There is (normally) no "C" folder or file in System32 in Windows 11. (I have 2 Production Windows 11 Pro systems here).

Use Windows Defender here.

Open the Security Center, Virus and Threat Protection.

Run a full scan. Takes a while.

When done, go back to Scan Options and run select Microsoft Defender AntiVirus (offline scan) and run an offline scan. When you select this, you will need to restart for the offline scan to run.

The two scans together should eliminate any viruses.

If, when done, you still have issues, back everything up and reinstall Windows 11.
