Hello, I have this thing I keeps popping up on my windows defender I says Trojan:win64 I have tried deleting it but it just doesn’t delete. Is it a virus? It makes my computer act weird I can’t repair steam when the pop up shows I also can’t update games on steam unless I shut down and turn my pc back on. Anyone got a solution thank you

Win64/patched.az.gen!dll may reinstall itself multiple times if you don't delete its core files. This may require tracking down dozens of files in different locations. I recommend downloading SpyHunter. SpyHunter is a powerful on-demand scanner, which will scan for malicious programs that may have been installed on your PC alongside Win64/patched.az.gen!dll.

manual way is :

Hold together the Start Key and R. Type appwiz.cpl –> OK

In Safe Mode (if you skipped the previous step, go back and do it) type cmd in the Search Field. Righ Click it —> Run as Administrator. In the new window, type sfc /scannow and press Enter. Wait for the verification process to finish

At this point, you successfully removed the DNSAPI.dll missing error...


If Phillip Corcoran's link doesn't help you get rid of it, download the free version of Malwarebytes here:

https://www.malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/

Malwarebytes is very good at detecting Trojan malware and then quarantining it so you can either keep it (why would you) or delete it. Malwarebytes puts it in a corner so it can't hurt you and your computer any longer.

Many use Malwarebytes as their go-to anti-malware elimination software. I use it randomly just to check once in a while to make sure I haven't picked up something that Windows Defender either doesn't catch or can't eliminate.

Good luck!

 


Thank you for the answer I will try this to see if it works

Hold the Start Key and R – copy + paste the following and click OK:

notepad %windir%/system32/Drivers/etc/hosts

A new file will open. If you are hacked, there will be a bunch of other IPs connected to you at the bottom.

If there are suspicious IPs below “Localhost” – write to us in the comments.

Open the Start Menu, type “Control Panel” in the search box —> Enter. Network and Internet —> Network and Sharing Center —> Change Adapter Settings. Right-click your Internet connection —> Properties.

In Networking, left click Internet Protocol Version 4 —> Properties.

Right click on the Taskbar —> “Start Task Manager.”

Go in Startup —> Uncheck entries that have “Unknown” as Manufacturer.

Type Regedit in the windows search field and press Enter.

Once inside, press CTRL and F together and type the virus’s Name. Right click and delete any entries you find with a similar name. If they don’t show this way, go manually to these directories and delete/uninstall them:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER—-Software—–Random Directory. It could be any one of them – ask us if you can’t discern which ones are malicious.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER—-Software—Microsoft—-Windows—CurrentVersion—Run– Random
HKEY_CURRENT_USER—-Software—Microsoft—Internet Explorer—-Main—- Random
