    A FOLDER APPEAR named "Tempo" with a subfolder named "Lexicons"


    HI TO ALL OF YOU OUT THERE


    i'm new to this forum, i hope you guys can help me out.

    A folder named "Tempo" with a subfolder named "Lexicons" created and reappear in my "E" Drive.
    i deleted it but it kept on reappearing after i revisit that drive.

    tried deleting it from CMD PROMPT with "RD"... it got deleted but after one day again it reappeared.

    can some please tell me what to do...?


    thanks in advance.

    I've seen infections do similar things, might start by deleting Temporary Internet Files then update your Antivirus and run a Full or Deep scan. Next I'd download and install, update then run Malwarebytes, the free version does fine.

    The Tempo/Lexicons folders are created by NaturalReader.
