I'm getting Windows Script Host Errors on Windows 10 Startup. I followed this guide and ran the Autoruns:

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...ipt-host/3bc43654-a4be-46df-8ce5-86beba2eba12

but the file isn't appearing on the list, I also tried enabling and disabling Windows Script Host in Win10 from these guides but no fix !

https://www.minitool.com/data-recovery/fix-windows-script-host-errors-001.html


so there's one shell file with the same name "config" deleted it and restarted to get the same error,

did the whole

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

sfc /scannow

but it didn't solve it

what's causing this error ?

should I try changing the file type of config to .vbe and see what happens ? lol ! found malware execution like this:

I also ran the Malwarebytes but it didn't show any related results

how do I fix the error ?

Config.vbe or Config.ps1 ?

The last image identifies the Config file type to be a Windows Powershell Script.

What is that Startup file begining with "QQ" published by Tencent? Noted "Disabled" but I would not leave it unless there is a specific reason for the file to be in Startup or even on the system.
