Hello Community,
I've been looking around my computers registry and have found a few weird keys under Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\
The keys are:

I'll put them here too in case you want to copy and paste them or something:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENTUSER\멘Ṉ싈Ṉ멘Ṉ
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\뭘⨱㺀ℎ뭘⨱楎
Computer\HKEY_CURRENTUSER\섀ׂ뤠ׂ߈
Computer\HKEY_CURRENTUSER\冀⩩览⏡冀⩩
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\鬰竣鯐竣鯰竣骐竣鳐竣饰竣鰰竣騰竣馐竣
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\㦸ᷢ흠຾㦸ᷢE

Could anyone tell me what the heck these are about.

They look highly suspicious to me. If that were on my computer I would

  1. export HKCU to a file
  2. take an image of the partition

Delete the keys and see if anything stops working. If it does and the things that stop working are legitimate you can import HKCU to get them back.

Have you tried Google Translate to see what the keys translate as?
