    WinLogon Asking what program to use?




    Can someone tell me why it's doing this?

    About 4 of these pop up at startup.

    This sounds like malware to me, but I guess it could be a corrupt system file.

    Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware & SuperAntiSpyware

    Open an elevated command prompt and run sfc /scannow

    Start > Search for "cmd" > Right Click cmd.exe > Run as Administrator
    Type in: sfc /scannow
    Hit Enter

    If that doesn't fix it, let us know.
