My anti-virus avast picked up a false positive today from full system scan, from a game I play (More specifically Monster Hunter Online CH and my computer is free of viruses). So then I realized I don't really play that game anymore. So I went ahead and uninstalled it from my list today, then I deleted the false positive. Including the folder that the game left behind in my external drive. To my surprise, after doing so, when I wanted to uninstall other games I wanted, A HUGE TON of my programs literally disappear! Only 28 programs list! So maybe I thought it was a bug, and went to CCleaner. To my surprise, even then SOME programs are missing there as well! More programs pop up in CCleaner, but still missing! I tried restarting, turning off, reconnecting my drive, and still no alas, everything is missing... So then I decided to do the regular fixes with Regedit, looking for my missing programs through the uninstall thingy path recommended by Microsoft. AND my surprise again, EVERYTHING is missing except Microsoft updates and graphic drivers! and no file is listed with more than 63 characters! Can anyone help out?
Edit: Also decided to run SFC scan, and it found no violations.
Edit 2: Installed Revo Uninstaller, Only detected 6 programs. Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet
Edit 3: Finished malewarebytes scan, and it detected 9 items, and I deleted them. It all seemed to be PUP from my other user account which I don't use. Probably from toolbars that came with ASUS I'm guessing.
