  1. I found out that ‘csrcs.exe’ is a Trojan W32.Spybot-EI. I saw it was a process in Task Manager but couldn’t find it in any search. However, I got rid of it like this:

    Go to Task Manager and see if there’s a ‘csrcs.exe’ process. If so, end that process. (Don’t end any other processes like the csrss.exe (it’s an essential system file!).

    Go to C:/WINDOWS/system32

    In the [Tools>Folder Options>View] menu in Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer), make sure the ‘view hidden files’ is enabled and the ‘Hide Protected Operating System Files’ is unchecked. This is because the CSRCS.EXE (or csrcs.exe) is able to hide itself from searches. If it’s there, delete it.

    Also see if theres a ‘explorer.exe csrcs.exe’ delete that also. Don’t delete ‘explorer.exe’ though!
    —————-
    The file “csrcs.exe” is also known to be created under the following filenames:
    %System%\autolfb.exe
    %System%\csrcs.exe
    %System%\wscrt.exe
    %Windir%\systemchk.exe
    —————-
    Now go to C://Windown/Prefetch and delete:

    CSRCS.EXE-17976F63.pf

    may look like:

    csrcs.exe-17976f63.pf

  2. Please make sure that you set show hidden and system files in folder option.

    to quick check that csrcs.exe exist in your system use this
    1. open command line windows. (start menu > run > cmd)
    2. cd c:\windows\system32
    3. dir/a:h csrcs.exe

    this may help you find it.

    Another problem i not sure the cause of that. May reprocess to make bluetooth pairing between Notebook and phone again.

    Hope that help
