If you had Kaspersky previously then it might have created a schedule that is still being run automatically, search in windows for "Task Scheduler", or maybe there's still remnants of Kaspersky still running in the background

Quote or Tag people so they know that you've replied.

The only thing now is that even after deleting it from task scheduler it's still present in even viewer under applications and services I restarted my pc after deleting it from task scheduler I've checked my installed programs and regedit and c drive and can't find any traces of Kaspersky unless I'm not looking in the right places
