It will be difficult to determine how the infection spread. It is likely on your desktop. – schroeder Aug 26 '19 at 06:35

There is no way for me to know. You need someone to look at the problem. – schroeder Aug 26 '19 at 10:18

They can auto infect any USB stick you plug in. There's even ones that hide in the firmware of the stick and jump over without you knowing.
