Sometimes you may see this message BackgroundContainer.dll is missing at startup of windows.There was a problem starting”C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Rundll32.exe” “C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Conduit\BackgroundContainer\BackgroundContainer.dll”,DllRunSpecific module could not be found.
This is due to partial removal of conduit adware . BackgroundContainer.dll missing message usually occurs when the .dll related to conduit adware was removed by some adware cleaner like adwclener or malwarebyte.
( Most of the time Microsoft Security Essential/Windows Defender may not remove these kind of adware messages or adware you have to run a adware cleaning utility like malwarebyte)
(Disclamer: HijackThis should be handled properly.. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-use-hijackthis/ Incorrect usage of HijackThis can cause your system to be unstable/unbootable and this guide is AS-IS)
Run it as administrator ..
Reboot.. That’s it…
(Since most of antivirus will not remove adware, If you haven’t already run adware cleaner like malwarebyte It is strongly recommend to run a malware cleaning using recommended adware cleaner)
