AV.exe and problems that result. Help, please!

Out of nowhere, I was struck by the av.exe virus, and he made sure I couldn't open any .exe files. I did some research and found out how to change my registry to resolve this problem, and my programs open now.

Many of the icons on my desktop and start menu are still empty, but the .exe has been reassociated. How to bring back the icons?

I don't know if there is anything else I should do and if the virus is still there. Norton said he got rid of av.exe, but how can I be sure?

And also, this virus affected all files outside the .exe?

See if this article helps you:

How do I rebuild the icon Cache in Vista

The virus did not affect the real. Just register, EXE files.  He probably touched nothing else, the purpose of this little piece of beef handy is to extort money on your part, not to ruin your computer.

    Can someone help me please, I don't know how to use a computer I was googlen 4 days! When I opened my computer it always tells me that the file is damaged and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility... I searched my computer for "chkdsk utility" and can't find that. Help, please!

    From what you say, you are probably unable to start Windows.

    In this case, when you start the computer, keep tapping the key "F8" on the keyboard until the Advanced menu comes up. Then choose "Safe Mode".

    You will see something like your ordinary, here to enter office "chkdsk volume: /f" (replace with your hard drive volume, in most cases, it's 'c') at the command prompt.

  • New computer with Win 7 and I'm drowned in ads, pop ups and constant redirects. Help, please!

    I just got a new computer with Windows 7, and I had nothing else that problems with redirections constants, pop up windows, ads pasted on top of advertising.  It's really driving me crazy.  Any time I click on what (in Facebook, or my website, or Twitter or whatever it is!) I am redirected to a new tab with an advertisement trying to make me spend it, or download that.

    When I'm on Facebook, I brilliantly flashing ads covering my groups and pages.  When I opened my site, I have flashing ads to the bottom of the left and the right of my blog and all my pages.

    I tried everything I know to stop this, and nothing works.  I ran Malwarebytes, and they found pieces of adware 2029!  I quarantined and deleted and ran two additional scans that came clean, but ads and redirects are always there, drive me to madness.

    Then someone please help me, I can't use this computer as it is, it takes twice as much time to my work, and that rebounds, flashing ads are too distracting for me to even write in my blog.

  • Windows 8 and first 11?  Help, please

    Hello

    I'm on windows 8 (64-bit) and PE11.  Today, I lost all my work, even though I had saved regularly and I have to redo the rendering very often.  Tonight because I'm redoing my work day, I lose sync and keep clips integers disappear.  It seems to be becoming more and more unstable.  I don't really know if I'm doing something wrong or, possibly, Windows 8 and 11 elements first are not the best fit.  I noticed a few other post mentioning window 8 problems even if they seem to be different from mine.

    The head of it at my company wants to remove windows 8 and install windows 7 on my computer (especially because of a VPN issue), but I fear that I will lose all my work.

    Can anyone suggest a way, or a number to call and tell me how I can save my work, get rid of windows 8 and then re-import my work in a Windows 7?  I fear only 2 weeks of my work is going up in smoke.

    PS I posted earlier, I am also having more frequent crashes.

    Help, please

    Thank you

    1. I would advise to do a full backup of the system before your machine for installation of the OS. I use Macrium Reflect product. There is a paid version I have, but there is also a free version.
    2. Note the path to your project's resources and the .prel file.
    3. Make sure that all the assets of the project (pictures, videos, sounds) and the project .prel file are saved on another disc or flash drive. Disable PRE11 on your computer before handing over the installation of W7.
    4. After the installation of W7 copy these assets of the project and the .prel file in the same folder on the hard drive of machines (2) above.
    5. Install PRE11 and activate it.
    6. Open the project file.

    See you soon,.
