    Dream Scene found in right click menu but was never installed


    Hello first post here, found something odd on my PC and not sure what to do about it. So I right clicked my desktop today and I have a new option in that menu which says "Play DreamScene". It is not highlighted or clickable. I have not installed this software to my knowledge and have not been able to locate it under installed programs. I ran Malewarebytes and found 2 virus' "PUP.Optional.CrossRider.A" and "PUP.Optional.Installex", but removing them did not get rid of the "Play DreamScene" option in my menu. Is it from a windows update? or a known virus? Any help would be great!

    Hello Fishheadman, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    It sounds like you or someone installed DreamScenes at one point. If you like, you could use the download and step "III. How to Uninstall Patch" to remove it.

    Hmm I did at one point mess around with a Diablo 3 moving wallpaper. I must have installed it then as I think its the only way to have a video display as a background? To be honest I have a shoddy memory and something like this which I never looked for or used in the right click may have been there all along.... Thank you for reassuring me I feel alot better knowing it isn't something hijacking my desktop. I think i will leave it installed incase I want to mess around with the backgrounds again.
