Perhaps an uninstaller/file shredder that uses brute force is the only solution. If somebody can help me resolve this I'd be most appreciative. I don't recall there being 2 before, so maybe one is bogus and needs to be removed. Nothing I've tried had worked and I'm concerned for my machine, the little HP 2-in-1.Īlso, I found 2 instances of notepad.exe on my machine one in system.32, and the other in the regular Windows folder. Other things I have tried: deleting notepad.exe, but Windows won't let me, even in Safe Mode I used a 3rd party process killer from IOBit without success, and an "end stubborn programs", also from IOBit. So far it has written over 30Gb of files I am unable to locate, and on a 120Gb SSD, I will run out of room very soon. Not only that, it is writing files that I cannot find. When this happens the CPU is running at over 90%, often at full tilt, 100%. I no sooner end it and it is back pretty much instantly. no matter how many times I end the process in Taskmanager/Taskkill in CMD as administrator. Yeah, as the title suggests, I'm having trouble with notepad.exe constantly reinventing itself.
