Browser opens by itself reformat didnt help

Hello I have a huge problem with my browser. My main browser keeps opening by itself and it refreshes by itself. First I've had problems with Chrome, so I uninstalled and reinstalled but nothing happened. So I installed all kinds of anti malware/virus programs to get rid of any malicious malwares, but even through that I didnt find anything bad. I decided to refomat my computer and installed chrome again but once I installed it it started opening non-stop so I tried firefox but it's not as bad chrome, but it still opens the browser randomly and when Im on a website it would refresh back to the homepage. I have no idea what the problem is can anyone please help???

Heres what it looks like

Welcome to the Seven Forums.

Does your laptop have a button on it that opens/starts your default browser? If so, then the button might be faulty.

It does have a button that opens a browser but when I press the button again it would just refresh, not open multiple windows.
I've even tried disabling my keyboard, and the problem still persists.

Process Explorer might let you know what app is starting the browsers.

There is nothing to install.
Download/open the zip file.
Copy the exe to some folder.
Run the exe file (right click & run as admin)
Agree to the EULA.

The info in the left most column should show you what app started the browsers.

Here you go thanks for the help.

You are welcome...

...unfortunately, Process Explorer did not reveal much - yet.

Let's see if an infection has found its way back in already:




Select the row for Firefox in the upper pane and show the lower pane via these clicks:




You might also want to test surfing in the Windows safe mode with networking.

Here you go Ive tried Safe Mode and it had the same result

Hold on I think i posted the wrong images

Here you go

For some reason, the Virustotal column is not populated with the results of the hash checks. What Antivirus app are you using? What firewall app? W7's native firewall?

Here is one more setting that might help you to see processes as they start and end:





Set that duration to the max of 9 - if you want.


Also, when you take screenshots, try Alt+PrntScrn to just capture the active window (make Process Explorer active first). No need to post more screenshots. You should be able to see the hash check results like those shown in my screenshots. If you can get them to work, just scan to see if anything is obviously bad.

We can try Process Monitor next... but it can be harder to explain.
