Windows adds items to Favorites

Recently, Windows 7 has been adding to my Favorites folder (Windows Exploder). What’s causing this and how do I stop it? I end up having to manually delete entries daily.

I checked for malware (fixed). But the problem still occurs. I really don’t like the computer doing things on its own without my knowledge or permission.

Zeno,

It could be because you are using Windows Exploder!

Seriously, I’d do a lot of checking for malware. HTH :cheers:

May the Forces of good computing be with you!
