Type in:
bootrec /FixMbr (<--- there is a "space" after "bootrec")

Are you sure, you're leaving a space after "bootrec".

Please, retry. Something is wrong here.

Yes, definitely leaving a space. The message "The operation completed successfully." appears immediately after pressing enter.

OK. At this point, I have to admit, I have no idea, what's causing redirection.
Your computer appears to be clean as a whistle.

There is a chance, we're dealing here with something new, not known to malware removal community culprit.

We went through all possible tools and I don't see anything malicious on your computer.

I have no other choice, but to recommend backing up your data and reinstalling Windows.

I'm sorry, I don't have better news

 

[skitige]

I had a feeling that was coming Looks like I've got a fun weekend to look forward to.
Thank you so much for all your effort in trying to help me with this.
This service you are helping with is tremendous.

 

[Broni]

Believe me, I really hate unsolved mysteries and I had only a few cases like this one in my malware removal history.
I guess, it happens from time to time
