I'm reading all new comments so don't hesitate to post a question about the file. If I don't have the answer perhaps another user can help you.
It keeps coming back. Windows Defender luckily Quantizes this file for me, after which this error pops up. I fix it by using "Starter" portable.
However after few days, the file somehow comes back into action and this process repeats. It will be great if there is insight which Mal-Source creates this malware product and adds to Startup-registry. I have UAC enabled.
