That exe is a known backdoor virus, get it off your system.

I realise that URL doesn't exactly sound friendly so I included a screen cap of the page it takes you to.

This literally just shows you what the link takes you to. Instructions aren't in this screen cap.

clean instal solve everything well if you can just uninstall it with something else it's better

Looks like a Trojan. Download Kaspersky Rescue Disk (http://rescuedisk.kaspersky-labs.com/rescuedisk/updatable/kav_rescue_10.iso) and burn it or use a USB drive. Boot from the disc/USB drive and run it. Save the report on a usb drive and post it here, if you care...

i want nothing to do with Kaspersky, sorry, thanks tho

Honestly, if I know I'd tell you. It helps to have some sort of protection against this kind of stuff, even if it's free. At this point the only help I can give is doing what you've probably already done and that's using Google to find an answer.

You could try deleting the file (Path: C:\programdata\microsoft\windows\start menu\programs\MSDCSC\msdcscx.exe) DELETE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK. SHOULD THIS ACTION CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS I AM NOT THE ONE TO BLAME.

 

The fact that it says it can't run (the pic in the OP) might mean you've got away lightly and there's a possibility it isn't running. That doesn't mean there isn't something else lurking around on your pc though. Download AVG anti virus (if you don't have an anti virus on your PC) and Malwarebytes and run some scans to see if they can pick anything up.

 

Now that I think about it, a registry mechanic might help. I had a problem with lots of .exe files refusing to work (you never know, this might be a legitimate .exe file that commonly gets infected but in this case it might not) and I "acquired" a program called "PC Tools Registry Mechanic"  and it got the job done. You could try that and see if it does anything.

 

 

 

 

Here's some things I recommend to make your PC safer for the future. 

 

Browser: Comodo Dragon (Chromium)/ Comodo Ice Dragon (Firefox). Personally I use Comodo dragon (like I've already pointed there is also a firefox version) and it is easily the most secure Chromium based browser. It is also lighter on computer resources. Google chrome can easily eat up half of your RAM whereas Comodo dragon rarely exceeds 800MB during normal use.

 

Anti Virus: (based on experience) Norton and AVG (McAfee is okay but it eats system resources, definitely not for weak rigs or laptops)

Norton is pretty decent, it gets some bashing on the web but it gets the job done. The only problem is, it's a bit overprotective... Better safe than sorry I suppose.

I haven't used AVG much (only as a temporary solution) but it sees a lot of praise on the web.

 

Other programs: Malwarebytes and PC Tools Registry Mechanic.

No experience with Malwarebytes but it gets a lot of praise on the web.

I've already mentioned PTRM.

 

If you decide to "acquire" premium versions of these programs make sure they have lots of seeders and positive feedback. I'm not saying you should, but it is an option.

You could try scanning your system with Malware Bytes or Spybot Search and Destroy. It seems that it isn't running correctly so it may not be detected in the scans. Also most malware is fairly smart now and doesn't call itself what it is, starting from a directory made of random characters. The below guides may help, but I cannot verify that they will:

Best of luck.
