Ok, I thought we were talking about a single file to be deleted. <Smile>.
I suggest letting Malwarebytes take care of the quarantine. I too have had
malware find possibly infected files in the registry and I've especially
made sure to quarantine these particular files.
If you'd like, you can send me your scan log and I'll take a look. It will
be located in the following location:
C:\Users\{Your computer name}\AppData\Roaming\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes'
Anti-Malware\Logs\
If you want to make things simple just run a quick scan, and when you get
results, simply choose to quarantine all infected files. The quarantine will
insure you don't accidentally delete important files.
Oh yeah, I suggested the Run dialogue thing so you can find your way to the
location of the file and manually scan a specific file using the
Malwarebytes entry in the context menu. Nope, you definitely don't want to
copy and paste the file in the Run dialogue, you want to copy the path
(excluding the actual file name).
If I'm not understanding your goal please let me know because we don't want
to end up spending tons of time doing something that only takes minutes.
Malwarebytes is meant to be quick and easy to use. <Smile>.

Hi Joseph,
Within the mywarebytes report, follow the path to that file and manually
delete it.
Some of these files and folders are in the registery or the bios.
And I don't know how to search there and making a mistake could make your PC
run bad?
Do you copy the file and go the run... or the Windows find and paste in the
file and press enter.
I have a nice bunch of files I would like to delete myself.
Thanks Mister Free Tech.
Jorge

You can remove that one, it likes to track you and bring more to the
calling.
