Answer» Quote I apologise for taking up your time.Not a problem. I love doing this. Is everything good with your computer now?Quote [.ShellClassInfo] Well yes, but not happy about the two files above being on my desktop really. What about the jrt text and esetmart... etc - just delete? Just one last question which is relating to Win 10, in Win 7 you could go into msconfig and start and delete anything you don't want STARTING up (some programs PUT themselves on there!) This Win 10 has a different set up - you just disable them?? Here's what I have on my currently, can any of them come off there do you think? [attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]Click Start> Computer> right click the C Drive and choose Properties> enter Click Disk Cleanup from there. Click OK on the Disk Cleanup Screen. Click Yes on the Confirmation screen. This runs the Disk Cleanup utility along with other selections if you have chosen any. (if you had a lot System Restore points, you will see a significant change in the free space in C drive) *************************************** This step will remove all cleaning tools we used, it'll reset restore points (so you won't get reinfected by accidentally using some older restore point) and it'll make some other minor adjustments... This is a very CRUCIAL step so make sure you don't skip it. Download DelFix by Xplode to your desktop. Delfix will delete all the used tools and logfiles. Double-click Delfix.exe to start the tool.

Quote Click Start> Computer> right click the C Drive and choose Properties> enterI had to find another way of cleaning up as your instructions were not for Windows 10, but everything disappeared as you said. I had trouble with WOT, as it does not work with Windows 10, (I got an error message) It won't work with Edge https://www.mywot.com/en/forum/58220-mywot-for-windows-10-s-edge-browser and I am not using Chrome or Firefox.That's very possible that some programs won't run on Windows 10. It remains to be seen if they will be updated. OK and thanks, Dave You're welcome. I will lock this thread. If you need it re-opened, PLEASE send me a pm. |
