Hello, for some reason, I cannot post in the 'Internet&Computer' forum...

 

My laptop just got hacked today via AnyDesk, with many of my Yahoo emails being deleted online, and a number of shortcuts on my desktop deleted. I managed to stop some 'transfers' and permanent deletions. Windows popped up on my laptop asking me for 'authorization' of desktop access... Anyhow, I took a picture of the remote ID in these windows, and was wondering, whether there is a way to find the culprit with the number ID accessing my laptop.

 

Also, deletions still going on, even though I uninstalled AnyDesk. What to do?

Did you run a virus scan using the option to scan all files?  If not do that as a first step. 

 

Yes, but nothing found. I uninstalled AnyDesk, however, and deleted as well as I could some Windows files and programs that uploaded automatically yesterday on my laptop. The strange 'delete and transfer' function still there as soon as I click on anything, but it's more manageable now.

Have you given any Indian "Microsoft Support" call center (scammers) remote access to your computer to "fix" anything lately?

 

Install and run Malwarebytes. Then disable that temporarily and install and run TrendMicro. See if either of those finds anything. After done with both, remove Trendmicro and keep Malwarebytes running. 
 

If still having problems you could try Hitman Pro, which offers a fully functional (30-day free trial) that cleans malware, viruses, trojans, worms, keyloggers, rootkits, trackers, spyware and more. https://hitmanpro.com
