As someone affected by the ransomware - did anyone else notice empty console windows popping up from time to time the days before the ransomware triggered the encryption?
- simopaa 9y agoThis is most likely due to the Office bug: https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/here-is-a-fix-for-microsoft-office-command-prompt-issue/ https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/here-is-a-fix-for-mi...
- Flammy 9y agoAgreed. Previously following the steps here removed the problem for me on 3 different Windows 10 computers. (PC gamers were particularly impacted by this, as the command prompt flickering would minimize full screen games...)
- devopsproject 9y agothis was really annoying
- misterdata 9y agoI did see those console windows here on Windows 10 but I am not (yet?) affected. So might also be related to something else (Windows Defender updates?).
