Hi - My D and E drives (my data drives) keep getting these bizarre folders showing up all of a sudden with file names that don't seem to make sense. CyberReason told me that it found Ransomware and stopped it. None of my files seem to be locked at this point (even after restart). I've run malware bytes and Avast - nothing found. I also ran Kaspersky Anti-ransomware tool for Home free. Nothing found. Same for Trendmicro HouseCall online.

But, every time I delete these folders, new ones with similar names come back.

Any idea what these are?

Thank you!

Here are some of the names on my D drive:
__Ecached189
__Elogs251
__Fresources255
abprogram12
acpackage35
acprogram123

on my E drive:
__Ecaches217
__Estorage34
Ostorage11
Rdata43
