You can run chkdsk. Also, try turning off or disabling all startup programs you may have. Then if if stops then you know it is one of those. Simply turn one on at a time until you find the culprit. Sorry, if you open updates folder(user\DHEERAJ\APPDATA\LOCALUPDATES) what if anything is in the folder?

I'm a noob. So I don't know how to check the disk. I switched of every startup program. But I'll try it again.
I simply deleted that folder.

search for Command Prompt
when it shows the app, in right panel choose run as admin
type chkdsk c: /f and press enter
2 paragraphs will pop up, Type Y to agree to run at startup
restart PC to let it run

You are most likely infected with a virus or malware

show us the contents of Run.vbs

window script shouldn’t be running any VBS files whatsoever unless you’re doing it so that means somebody else is doing it
