Hello, I am fairly unintelligent person when it comes to computers, but when I see a process in task manager taking up 100% of my cpu and RAM, I know somethings wrong. The process is labeled as winsvchost.exe and is located in my AppData folder in the x86Adobe86x folder. I would like some help on how to remove the virus and am open to provide any logs. However I do not know what logs I need to provide and would like someone to tell me. I have an HP pavilion g6 laptop model d8x85ua, running Windows 8.1. Please help me fix my computer!
