Hi, sorry if I posted in the wrong sub.

So my PC is infected with speechstracing/spoolsv.exe and taskshostservice.exe. Currently, they don't do any harms (that I know of), because my Avira keeps blocking any activities from those files. I checked running processes in task manager, and I don't see those 2 files. So far it's just annoying regular beeps from Avira, telling me that it has intercepted those files' activities.

Avira gives warning to 2 files:
1. C:\Windows\System32\TasksHostServices.exe
2. C:\Windows\SpeechsTracing\Microsoft\x86.dll

Naturally I want to remove them once and for all. Avira can't do it. Tried googling, and ended up installing a few (sponsored) anti malwares, but honestly they suck. Didn't fix anything. Tried removing manually, like searching the names in registry. Found spoolsv.exe folder in the registry, but I couldn't delete it, even when I tried to do so in safe mode.

So if anyone would be so kind as to guide me step by step of how to do it manually, it'd be very much appreciated.
