• MRT.exe is a new file that appeared on my hard drive

  MRT.exe is a new file that appeared on my hard drive this week, occupying more than 53 000 KB. Is it safe? (the source file is mrtstub.exe)

  Anti - this is the one-time execution of Microsoft for their security scanner, which is updated monthly and is managed by Windows updates current.

  It is designed to attack and remove some specific malicious software which is known to cause serious problems on the internet (for the most part, worms and Trojan horses).

  If you want o, you can remove it, but don't be surprised when it reappears the next time that you run a batch of updates (especially if you have set to automatic WU)

• The MRT.exe program keeps using 50% of my cpu all the time, how do I stop

  I really need help... After you install the update for the MRT. EXE for it can always stay less and its made my computer run slow and my cpu runs at 10 degrees warmer... I need help it is so frustrating.

  First of all, most of the people who respond on this forum is not related to Microsoft.  Unless the machine is identified as a "Support Engineer" or "Microsoft moderator system" or similar, he or she is not employed by Microsoft.  Thus, one who you "connected direct to" was not one of our "associates".

  MRT.exe is the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool.  A new version of this tool is included in the critical updates each month on "Patch Tuesday" (the first Tuesday of the month).  It must run once - at the time download you - where and then be dormant for the rest of the month, except if you manually start upward.

  Apparently, the nameless person with which you handled has not well understand this.

  Have you ever received a message indicating that the MRT found something?

  Click Start > run and then type the following in the run box, and then click OK
     
  %SystemRoot%\Debug

  A Windows Explorer window will open and you should see - at least - a file named mrt.log.  Well, you will see another file named mrt.log.old, which is the last newspaper of the month.

  Open the file with Notepad mrt.log.  You should see something like the following:

  If there is an ERROR in the log, post it here or see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/891717

  MRT.exe does not run continuously.  If so, something is wrong.

  MRT.exe should be located in c: Windows\System32.  If she is not there, look for your entire drive, making sure to check the search options "Search system folders", "search the hidden files and folders" and "Search subfolders".  If you find MRT.exe somewhere other than C:\Windows\system32, it is probably malware masquerading as the real Malicious Software Removal Tool.

  Everywhere where you find it, delete it.  You can download the latest version of the MRT here.

  I also suggest you analyzing your system with free MalwareBytes Antimalware and SUPERAntiSpyware.  Be sure to update both scanners before their execution.

  If, after you remove MRT.exe, you get an error at startup complain that MRT could not be found, download and run Autoruns.  Click the 'Connection' tab and look in the column 'Image path' the MRT.exe.  If it is not displayed in the connection tab, click the "all" tab and use the file > search tool.  A characteristic of the search of Autoruns tool is that you must move the selection under the element line "found" before you "Find Next."  Once you find the entrance with MRT.exe, delete it.

• MRT.exe ate my photos. Can someone help me get back them?

  I am running Windows XP service pack 3.  I keep all my photos on a separate hard drive in its own file labled photos.  According to this hard disk a file arrived on labled 00f3f1d25bf937f91f.  When I looked inside this file, it shows that it contains a file called MRT.exe dated 05/17/2011.  As it has been bothering me not let him alone.  Unfortunately however today my mouse, which can be a bit tempemental, rather than open the file of the photo, which was immediately next to this file, moved the photo file to the folder labled 00f3f1d25bf937f91f and won't let me open it.  I tried to move the picture on the 00f3f1d25bf937f91f file, but the system is in place with access denied.  If I look at the properties of the photo file I can even if I can't open it, it shows the size of file as being zero byte.  Can anyone tell how I recover my photos?  I guess they are there somewhere the extrnal HDD is provided by Seagate and on my directory is called FreeAgent drive. It is not used for anything else other than a backup of hard drive that I did not run for a few weeks so wherever the photos went to what they always be you somewhere.
  Besides the above, I'm under full AVG anti virus with firewall suite etc. so I don't know I need anyway this program MRT.exe.  I seem to have three versions of the present on the hard disk at different times.  I have not looked to see where he may have repeated itself.

• Multiple copies of MRT.exe in several folders on C: / drive

  Recently, I noticed several files in the main folder C: / drive of our 64 bit Windows Vista machine.  All 4 folders have strange names:
  -f7b9a1b44342f2673e6016fd76ed1e5f

  And they all contain one instance of MRT.exe.

  How can I be sure that it is confidence Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool?  Why are there so many copies with strange folder names?

  The malicious software removal tool creates files in the random name. See the FAQ of http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890830#Faq Q21

  And this extract previously in KB890830

  How to remove the malicious software removal tool

  The malicious software removal tool does not use an installer. As a general rule, when you run the malicious software removal tool, it creates a temporary directory named at random on the root of the drive of the computer. This directory contains several files, and it includes the Mrtstub.exe file. Most of the time, this folder is automatically deleted after the tool to the end of execution or the next time that you start the computer. However, this folder may not always be automatically deleted. In these cases, you can manually delete this file, and this has no adverse effect on the computer

• Critical errors dealing with MRT.exe and error messages "Services and controller app has stopped working".

  I get two error codes... "Services and controller app has stopped working" and "Windows has encountered a critical problem and will restart in a min. Please save your work." The only time where it does it but when I plug my cable network. Already ran sfc and found nothing. Ran malwarebytes and removed a lot of viruses, I picked up, but I think that something in my registry can be screwed up after trying to remove the said virus. I was getting some kind of error MRT.exe and I tired looking for things to the top on this but I think I can have messed up a registry that was loaded entry of this and it has damaged something.

  Hi Sheryl30,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft answers Forum.

  Since when are you facing this problem?

  What are the hardware changes, did you?

  Wuauclt.exe is a Windows Automatic Update Client first.

  Wuauclt.exe rest reside in the background and checks the Microsoft Web site for updates to the operating system.

  Originally, wuauclt.exe is a legitimate system process, which is located in C:\Windows\System32, but there are cases where wuauclt.exe is actually a disguised virus, Trojan or worm.

  If you find wuauclt.exe stored anywhere different from its original location, you should get really suspect and scan your system for possible threats.

  Search for the file and see if you have this in several locations.

  If you find, run a scan of Malware on your computer. Find a good program and run the scan of Malware on your computer

  You can also set your computer to the State of clean boot that you get this error randomly. This will help you determine if the services running in the background are the cause of the problem.

  d. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.

  e. click OK and then click on restart.

  Here is a link to the article that will show you how to troubleshoot using the clean boot:

• Application popup: wercon.exe - disc no.: there is no disc in the drive. Insert a disc into drive F?

  Not too sure about what to put in.

  In any case, this message came earlier today (it is what it says in the event viewer), when I went to run reports on problems and solutions. F is a DVD writer (SATA A one). I replaced the IDE DVD the other day. What is the DVD has to do with this opening program? : why it needs a disc, before it will open?   If I click on continue, it will open / run. Its update. Its been scanned for viruses etc with MSE. And it's clean. Anyone know?

  Any information appreciated. Vista x 64 is on it. Thank you

  In the end, I had to format. Something weird / strange has happened. This version of Vista is legitimate, BUT no matter what I tried, (after), if I changed the b/g for a solid color (blue).

  Which is what it was originally, it changed in black after I rebooted.

  And no matter what has been started (originally, Inc. MSE), the programs were running, but no icons appear on the taskbar.

  And Virtual PC has been installed (I had installed an XP ISO with him). But what happened, wiped away completely! (as I did a system restore). Only prob was, SR has been disabled at the time.

  And all the programs that were in the menu disappeared (the ones I installed, not windows default programs). Though even they were still installed (their records were there)
