Doesn't that delete your files?

Do you mean system restore?

He is talking about the on board partition that was placed for recovery and that does indeed remove all the files you have had on the system.

You will lose your music/documents if you reformat or recover from the partition.


Edit: Windows recovery will not remove this virus, it will hide it for a bit but then it comes right back.

That's why you use a external hard drive and move all your music/movies etc onto it so you won't have to re download everything when you restore back to factory settings.

System restore only works for like 2 days then it comes back worse everytime.

Seems like I'm getting rid of it with malware bytes in safe mode with networking

Idk tho. What would you do



Reformat.



What the fuck? No, this is absolutely your last resort.

Generally you can find a pretty effective way to get rid of it via Google.

Can't remember the last time I got a virus though....
