How to remove software called windows disk?

BaileyB

Not sure where this has come from but its really annoying me. Keeps telling me i have low disk space and critical errors.

It was not there yesterday and not downloaded anything lately.

Tried spybot and adaware but not picking it up, its also not in program files.

Any ideas?

Download MALWAREBYTES (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')
http://www.filehippo.com/download_ma..._anti_malware/
Open malwarebytes and goto UPDATE and click 'check for updates'. After its updated go to SCANNER and click PERFORM QUICK SCAN then click SCAN
Remove everything thats found (needs to be ticked)
Post the COMPLETE log here AFTER youve deleted everything it finds
If anything was found then do the exact same but run a FULL scan

Have you checked whether you really do have low disk space available? Windows has a built-in check for this which you can't remove. You can, however turn off the warning in most versions of Windows, but it's probably better to find out what is using up the disk space if that's really the problem.

Alternatively it might be scareware, which Malwarebytes should detect and remove, though it's unusual for them to post false warnings about disk space...

Acer lap top perhaps?

Its Windows Explorer telling you your hard drive space is low. Its part of Windows and no, you can't uninstall it.

Had something similar/same on my lap top was damn annoying I can tell you. Turned out it was something bad and the only thing I found that would remove it was 'SuperAntiSpyWare' (free).

This is a new take on WindowsAntiVirus spyware program that was going around, pretty much the same thing, click here to go to our website and buy this fixing tool etc etc.

I use RKill to stop the spyware running Developed by a Microsoft dev which kills the process running and you then can run any spyware/virus removal tool of your choice.
