Gokemon Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I have installed this beta versión in my Pc.When starting Windows 7 Ultimate it loads in the startup and a splash screen appears in the desktop.It keeps in a folder in C:\Users\David\Appdata\Temp. If I delete this folder and the registry input when restarting Windows it loads again. Is this a virus? How can I disable it? Regards PS Also if I uncheck the load splash screen in the startup when restarting it loads again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Do you have a Logitech keyboard with LCD screen? E.g. G15, G19. Their software (Logitech LCD Manager) may auto-load AIDA64 even if you didn't enable it specifically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokemon Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 Nope I don't have that keyboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Then maybe the problem is that AIDA64 auto-start entry is still active in the Windows Task Scheduler. Once AIDA64 starts up automatically at Windows boot, go to main menu / File / Preferences / General, and disable (clear the checkbox) the option Load AIDA64 at Windows startup. Close AIDA64, and if you want, you can verify if the scheduled task entry is actually removed by using the Task Scheduler: push the Windows key, and type in: Task Scheduler, then click on the icon of the Task Scheduler in the Programs group. Then, in the Task Scheduler, select the Task Scheduler Library group in the left pane to see all scheduled tasks. AIDA64 shouldn't be there. If it's still there, then maybe some other programs created the task (could be a malware that imitates AIDA64). In such case make sure to perform a full system check via a security/anti-virus software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokemon Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 I can't open the Aida64 menú options since the trial versión has finished it's evaluation period and only a dialog box opens to enter the product key.No Aida64 task in the Task Scheduler nor in the msconfig.

Fiery Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 If you cannot find the AIDA64 auto-start task in Task Scheduler, then AIDA64 hasn't set itself to load up at Windows bootup. It means some other software starts AIDA64 at Windows bootup, but I'm not sure what software would want to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokemon Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 What software would do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Any software that wants to interact with AIDA64, e.g. its External Applications features. We only know of Logitech LCD Manager, but there could be others out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokemon Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 What should I do then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 What do you want to do exactly? Do you want to completely remove AIDA64 from your system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokemon Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Yes but the Aida64 that loads in the startup is a portable versión so I don't have any clue where must be stored... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Try to use the search field of Windows Explorer to find the file AIDA64.EXE. Once you found that file, just remove it, and any other AIDA64-related files you may find via the Windows Search facility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
