   sfc /scannow

Here are a few signs that you are infected with a malware:

Sign 1. Pop ups
One of the most annoying signs of malware is represented by the unwanted pop-up windows. Unexpected pop-ups which appear on the system are a typical sign of a spyware infection.
In this particular case, the main issue is created not only by the numerous pop-up windows that affect your Internet navigation, but also because it is quite difficult to remove them from the system.

To avoid spyware and its impact on our systems, keep in mind a few security practices:

• don’t click any suspicious pop-up windows
• don’t answer unsolicited emails/messages
• be careful when downloading free applications

To remove this type of threat, you need a very good security product against spyware. A few popular products capable of removing spyware from your system are:

• Malwarebytes
• SecurityReviver
• Spybot Search and Destroy
• Lavasoft’s Ad-Aware

Sign 2. Have an antivirus installed
If you are checking for malware, simply run a complete scan on the system with a good antivirus product. It is important to have a reliable security solution on your system, which should include real-time scanning, automatic update and a firewall.

You can try Security Reviver which will scan your PC and identify security threats and vulnerabilities. Security Reviver can quickly and safely remove these threats and prevent them from reoccurring.

More information an be found at the below link:

You can use the below ones:

• Norton
• Avast
• Avira
• Mcafee

Sign 3. Hard drive space
You also need to check if your physical storage space has been increasing lately or if some of your files disappeared or changed their names.
This is another sign of malware activity, since there are numerous types of malicious software which use various methods to fill up all the available space in the hard drive and cause it to crash.

The best thing is using anti-malware.
Fix: Download Malware Scanners
Now you're ready to have a malware scanner do it's work--and fortunately, running a scanner is enough to remove most infections. If you already had an antivirus program active on your computer, you should use a different scanner for this malware check, since your current antivirus software may have not detected the malware. Remember, no antivirus program can detect 100 percent of the millions of malware types and variants.

If you think your PC is infected, I recommend using an on-demand scanner first and then following up with a full scan by your real-time antivirus program. Among the free (and high-quality) on-demand scanners available are:

1. BitDefender Free Edition
2. Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool
3. Malwarebytes
4. Norman Malware Cleaner
5. SuperAntiSpyware

Run a Scan With MalwarebyteDepending on your computer, the quick scan can take anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes, whereas the full scan might take 30 to 60 minutes or more.
It should work for you.

If it doesn't work, try the below step:

A fast way to check for viruses is to use an online scanner, such as the Microsoft Safety Scanner. The scanner is a free online service that helps you identify and remove viruses, clean up your hard disk, and generally improve your computer's performance.

To run the Microsoft Safety Scanner

1. Go to the Microsoft Safety Scanner webpage to download the scanner.
2. Click Download Now, and then follow the instructions on the screen.

I hope this helps in removing the malware and keeping you secure.
