Sounds similar to a virus I had a few months ago. We weren't able to do a thing, finally had to take it to the IT guy at my husband's work and have the whole computer scrubbed.

There is a virus out there that changes your file types. I wish I could help you more.
Can you download malwarebytes?

www.malwarebytes.org


Turn of SYSTEM RESTORE and run malwarebytes in SAFE MODE. Run it more than once.


IMO AVG is not what it used to be & was not catching things it should have. I switched to Comodo.

Good luck

Have you tried booting in SAFEMODE and then running Malwarebytes from there?
