How to check Keylogger on computers without software
Keylogger is a computer program written with the purpose of recording all operations performed on the keyboard and recording the images displayed on the screen by screen capture or video recording. Keylogge r is classified as a spyware group.
To avoid theft of activities and operating information on your computer, you need to check your computer regularly for keyloggers to remove and protect the computer. Here are two ways to check keyloggers on non-software computers.
Method 1
Step 1 : Press the Windows + R key combination to open the Run dialog box , in the Run dialog box, enter the keyword msconfig into the Open box and press OK or the Enter key to open the System Configuration window .
Step 2: The System Configuration window appears and you select the Startup tab (the applications launch with Windows). Click the Disable all button to disable these programs and click OK or Apply to save the settings. Then turn off the System Configuration window , and turn off the computer screen to turn off all running antivirus programs.
Step 3 : Open the System Configuration window again and select the Startup tab , if no application activates itself (no checkmark in the box) then the computer will not be infected with keylogger . And if any application automatically activates (with a check in the box) then the risk is the keylogger program .
Step 4 : Remember the name of the auto-activated application and its path. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the application via the path and delete the keylogger program from your computer. Next, you close all the programs and applications that are running and restart the computer.
