Cleanmgr.exe error

[Call of What?]

So i recently have this error whenever i start my pc this pops up, it asks me if i want any other information about the error when i press "no" another exact same error pops up asking the same and when i press YES it opens a page leading to microsoft or some shit, https://support.microsoft.com/nl-nl/kb/2715633 its in dutch so you might not understand it but i bielieve this error started by some malware trying to clean my files in its way using this windows clean thing. 

 

Does anyone know how to uninstall or just stop this error from happening, also i dont need this clean thing i think. Because i use Ccleaner and Mbytes. I also tried scanning with Mbytes but it din't stop this error.

:unsure:

Viruses with the same file name

Is cleanmgr.exe a virus? No, it is not. The true cleanmgr.exe file is a safe Microsoft Windows system process, called "Disk Space Cleanup Manager". However, writers of malware programs, such as viruses, worms, and Trojans deliberately give their processes the same file name to escape detection. Viruses with the same file name are such as VirTool:Win32/VBInject.gen!DM (detected by Microsoft), and Trojan.Gen(detected by Symantec).

To ensure that no rogue cleanmgr.exe is running on your PC.

 

How to recognize suspicious variants? If cleanmgr.exe is located in a subfolder of the user's profile folder, the security rating is 66% dangerous. The file size is 13,179,660 bytes (66% of all occurrences) or 884,736 bytes. The program has no visible window. The process starts upon Windows startup (see Registry key: Run, MACHINE\Run). The program listens for or sends data on open ports to a LAN or the Internet. Cleanmgr.exe is not a Windows core file. Cleanmgr.exe is able to monitor applications, record keyboard and mouse inputs and manipulate other programs.

Important: Some malware disguises itself as cleanmgr.exe, particularly when not located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder. Therefore, you should check the cleanmgr.exe process on your PC to see if it is a threat.
