Weird bat file and unknown extension file in Local folder

Hello.

I have two weird files in my Appdata/Local folder and it keeps recreating itself every 5 seconds. Deleting it doesn't work, obviously, it keeps reappearing, with a different "key" each time. It's a .bat file and another file with a weird extension.

"5047f1f8.bat" :
" start "qjzAHi236kyahl7GoM" "%LOCALAPPDATA%\21aaacf5\d127c64c.a45bc5356" "
"qjzAHi236kyahl7GoM" is the key that changes each time the file reappears.

The second file is "d127c64c.a45bc5356". Its size keeps changing and I have no clue on what it may be.

I tried many scans, including on those specific files, try running them in sandboxes, and the only thing that happens is an error saying that it's an unknown extension. For some reasons my computer can run it without saying me that the extension is unknown.

I can upload it (the second file) but won't post the link directly there since there may be some personal info in it.

EDIT : By the way, the process accesing this file is the "System" itself. It may just be a system file but it's really weird. i.gyazo*com/e243043e81ba9c1e79b2f6b6a3673d15.png
The bat file isn't creating itself, it's another piece of malware, we're going to remove that.
Please run Adwcleaner and clean all detections.

Ok, thanks 😁 ! But it didn't solve the problem though. 😖
Adware Cleaner and Malbytes should fix the problem. Weird question... Can you view the code of the batch file? Curious what it has...

Not at all, I can send it to you by PM if you're able to analyze it though.

Could you also pm it to me please?
Pretty sure AdwCleaner won't do jackshit about your infection because it isn't an Adware, PUP, Browser Hijacker, etc.

My era of providing technical support and malware removal on HackForums is over, so you can stop PM'ing me about it. Sorry.
