Windows 7: Win 7 SP1 - Mysterious services update?

Hi all On checking windows services after the sp1 update I noticed these two new items in the listing.



RHKH & GQRFNVTJO

Does anyone have a clue as to what these "services" actually do or are they just markers?

No. Not installed/running on my PC.

Are they running? Have you tried to stop them and see if it affects your PC performance?

I would disable them and see what happens. You can always start them if needed.

Let's see what they are.

Download DDS from one of these links:
Mirror 1 Mirror 2 Mirror 3

• Disable any script blocking protection
• Double click the dds icon to run the tool.
• When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
  1. DDS.txt
  2. Attach.txt < this will be minimized in the task tray
• Save both reports to your desktop.

Include the contents of both logs in your next reply.

On first check with win services they were set to auto, then I set them to manual in case they were system critical. Here is a split from the dds. listing & both point to temp folders.

Okay, they're in appdata\local\temp

Jacee No longer any sign of these mysterious items. May I thank you for your knowledgeable guidance. Ich...

You're welcome

Looks it is something to do with Remote FX & Microsoft VM (virtual Machine) combined (but this case here, is a badly installed drivers).

I have all those files in C:\Windows\System32 (1st screenshot) & C:\Windows System32\Drivers (2nd screenshot)
