How to remove/clean the files corrupted *.cab on my laptop?

I currently have an analysis of my laptop McAfee every day and the analysis recently went to take 2 hours for a little more than 4 hours.  I contacted McAfee and they analyzed the scan and said I seem to have some *.cab files that are corrupted the analysis stops on.  They said I need to contact Microsoft Support so that they could tell me how remove and replace the.

Unfortunately, the Microsoft Support only that I can't find on the web is this forum as it seems to discuss or send someone to the technical support Microsoft costs £46!  Being a student I can't afford it.

Can someone help me with this problem at all?

Hello

If the system files are corrupted, the internal analysis will repair it. As I said, it is more likely that they are currently poorly identified, and if they are not corrupt, you should ignore all messages from McAfee.

About AV, it, software with Symantec, is usually the most problematic. Bulky and awkward, she often prevents performance with the by default too aggressive settings. There are many, many available that work with a good system better. Turn to programs like kaspersky, avast, nod32, avg and mse as alternative.

    I do not have a disk, how do I clean the files that I have to get rid of to speed up my laptop? Brand "Lenovo"?

    Can someone help me please?

    What version of Windows do you have?

    A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. cCleaner comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.
    http://www.CCleaner.com/download

    1.9. When you open cCleaner you will see four large icons to the left of the window. Here's cleaner them, registry, tools, and Options. For routine maintenance, you normally acceding Cleaner (this is not the mentioned registry cleaner later). When using for the first time only, you can accept the default settings.

    1.10. some observations on the parameters. On my computer, I do not have the boxes before the passwords saved selected. In a less secure environment, you could check this option and set cCleaner to run automatically when the computer starts. You also cannot check the boxes in front of shortcuts from the Start Menu, desktop shortcuts and historical form. You must check the boxes according to your needs. Bad first time options causes irritating no disasters.

    1.11. the second icon that you see when you open cCleaner's registry. A reserve many experienced users have about cCleaner, it's that it comes with a registry cleaner. This tool should not be used. By using a registry cleaner, but it is the case, provides significant benefits and there is always the risk of creating insoluble system errors, which cannot be resolved by reinstalling the operating system and all that that implies. You will avoid any possible problem of not not by clicking on the Save icon.

    1.12 the third icon that you see when you open cCleaner is tools. If you click this icon, it gives you access a routine plus service options. The first two tools are uninstalled and commissioning. I do not use these tools, preferring to use other software options. The third tool is the restoration of the system, which is covered in the next paragraph. The fourth tool is Wiper Drive and you will find reviews about this tool later

    1.13 removing the system restore points can be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments. This makes it easier to hold the restore points for long periods without keeping large unwanted files, whose inflexible approach to disk cleanup fails to offer.

    1.14. you can't remove the last restore point using the cleaning disc or cCleaner. If the last restore point contains malicious software, you can turn off and then turn on system restore. This has the disadvantage that restore all points are removed when you want to keep more restore points that are not infected. How to get round this problem is to create a new restore point when you are satisfied with your computer is free of malware and then remove the infected restore point.

    1.15. in normal circumstances, you probably rarely need to use Driver wiper. However, there are situations like if you gave the computer to someone else, then the tool may be useful. Please note that the wiper Drive, opening, generates a warning message, which should not be dismissed lightly. Using wiper Drive for the wrong reason could have serious consequences.

    1.16 the fourth icon is labeled Options. Many configuration options are available here. You can configure cCleaner to run when start you but remember that this will slow down the boot. Another setting allows you to include or exclude cookies. Yet another allows files named to exclude.

    In windows 7 Professional 64-bit. How to speed up the removal of the files. It takes 1.5 to 3.5 minutes to remove a file

    Before I give you a sensible answer in the following paragraphs, why don't you try not to create a new admin user account & try that.  I have absolutely no logic behind this suggestion, it's just that I've seen some strange symptoms in the other forum posts that have later been attributed to user profile problems and the test would take less than the time of deleting a single file without talking about relocation.

    Resettlement is a pain in the neck, so anything that resolves things without this point is worth.  Mine took me several days more sorting over several problems of McAfee.

    If the Dell disk is labeled 'réinstallation DVD' then he will do what is necessary because this is a full version of a Windows DVD installation [this is also what I have for them and that I used recently to reinstall from scratch].  Anyway, boot it from the disc only is not a destructive or dangerous act then you might try & see if the menus & options for the "repair installation" appear or not.  Just escape before you tell it to do anything then use again when you've prepared everything [backups, etc.].

    Your safe mode test confirms that Windows is at fault and not a third-party on your PC application.  The result of the safe mode is in fact a good result because this means that when you set Windows & malicious programs, you should be fine.

    Using the SpiritX AV cleaning tips will help you see if the malware is what corrupted Windows or if Windows comes to decide absolutely bloody & wreck itself.  If it is malware, so you still need to clean things up before the relocation to ensure that malicious software fails to cling to something during this relocation [I am simply repeating SpiritX here as I know nothing].

    It occurs to me that this Exchange did not once mention the Dell Factory Image Restore Partition.  This procedure is a little easier than relocation complete & it preserves the Dell-bundled utilties.  This is in essence an automatic & custom reinstall.  Before you begin this or even nothing else, in which case Dell did he not bring to your attention, you might not realize that Dell DataSafe Local Backup has a facility to make a USB / backup DVDR the Dell Factory restore partition .  This means you would retain the possibility to make a Dell factory restore in the future what you did with the hard drive in the meantime.  A disadvantage is that it would permanently replace the partitions that you have set up yourself [for Windows XP Mode or any other purpose] it really means return to the State wherever it was when you first opened the box.  My factory restore USB is 6.4 GB [Home Premium x 64 edition], but yours could be bigger - they advised me to use a 16 GB USB DRIVE as it was the size of the partition itself, then you can check the size to decide what USB can be required.

    I noticed that you talked to start in F8 for the repair menu or using a boot of the system repair disc. I guess you tried or had Dell try this for you.

    Good luck & patience.

    Deleted file recovery can recover incomplete files, i.e. the part of these files may be missing.  Recover deleted files is much more reliable if recovery of a backup, instead of using recovery software.

    These things depend on the operating system and the file system.
