Solved a GrandPrix Hidden Windows and a Sudden App Windows Pop Up

  • 1

So my lenovo (somehow) got a Windows genuine problems, which is (probably) an impossible things that my Windows isn’t genuine, since my dad bought it at Lenovo dealer in here. There’s no significant problem since that ‘genuine issue’ comes, but today, I suddenly got a new pop up windows named “GrandPrix Hidden Windows” that couldn’t be close at all, even I’m using Windows Task Manager help.
Right then, a sudden strange pop up apps windows also appears. Like, Daemon Tools, AVG Scan, and any other apps that was active in my system tray. The problem is, I DIDN’T EVEN CLICK ON THEM at all…
And when I try to close it manually by clicking the ‘x’ button in each windows, my lenovo become slower. So I did close those ‘pop up’ with Task Manager, and there’s only one ‘pop up’ that couldn’t be close at all, it’s the GrandPrix Hidden Windows Pop Up, and two other ‘strange’ pop up windows. And also, my Chrome suddenly opening 3 new tab, which I couldn’t even open at all..

Is it a virus or malware that has infected my lenovo? and how can I solve this?

Please help me fix this. Any helping suggestion or instruction will be much appreciated!

  1. “Is it a virus or malware that has infected my lenovo?”

    Lets find out.

    1: Download & run Unhide

    A introduction as to what this program does.

    For those of you who no longer have the %Temp%\Smtmp folder, you will not be able to use Unhide to restore your Start Menu items. With this in mind, I have created some scripts to restore the default Start Menu for specific versions of Windows that I have access to. You can view the available versions below. I will be adding more as time goes on.
    Once the program has been downloaded, double-click on the Unhide.exe icon on your desktop and allow the program to run, it does take some time, be patient. This program will remove the +H, or hidden, attribute from all the files on your hard drives. If there are any files that were purposely hidden by you, you will need to hide them again after this tool is run.
    When Unhide is complete, it will create a logfile on the Windows Desktop called Unhide.txt. Let me know if it dosn’t produce a log please.

    2: Reboot

    3: Run TDSSKiller & post the contents of the log.
