Virus complete hard drive.

Hello

I'm having this problem where this virus keeps filling my hard drive (only the C) with invisible files. I've had this problem for a while now (probably around a year-ish, and Yes, I'm that lazy/careless with a jerk to start to deal with it now). Anyhoo, I did some research and found a way to return back in time mainly by the system restore so I tried, but my computer says that there is no restore points, so basically that I'm screwed if this is my only recourse.
Is it possible to get rid of this terrible virus? Any help would be very much appreciated since this is getting really tiring.
Thanks in advance!

See you soon,.
Steven

  • All files and folders show hidden after virus corrupted hard drive XP

    I recently got a virus on my laptop which made all the files and folders hidden and says that my hard drive is damaged. I managed to get rid of the virus, but all my files are always hidden. I went to my computer and made sure all the hidden files are visible. This fixed the problem a bit. My main problem now is that all my files and folders are slightly transparent. It's a more of a nuisance than a real problem. I downloaded a program that would allow me to change each file in groups, but it would take an extremely long time to go by a record throughout my entire computer. I was wondering if there is any means possible to put all my files and folders hidden not Hidden to get rid of their transparency.

    Thanks for any help you can give.

  • How can I defragment a complete hard drive (formerly)?

    I want to give my husband my old laptop, a HP non-tech.  It's the hard drive 60 gigabytes.  A few days ago, I sent most of my personal to the Recycle Bin and then deleted files (don't worry, all these files are in my new computer and saved on an external hard drive), the thought that would open up more space, because it was so full.  (The Defragmenter says he needs 15% free space on the disk.)  The Defragmenter says only 1 percent of the space was available, and after I left to do its thing, he went up to 2%.

    Is not remove all these files something interesting?

    I must also say that I deleted a bunch of files temporary and others, also, but this seems not to have helped.

    Is it possible that I can open a space on the hard drive without having to completely clean and re - install all software?  Thank you.

  • Trying to remove virus format hard drive - when booting from the Windows XP CD, don't teach me to press a button to proceed with the installation?

    Trying to remove virus, need to format the hard drive to remove all programs to remove the virus.  I ran several security programs which has not found a virus.  Taken at Best Buy, they ran their programs, could not detect viruses, but said there are something certainly on my system.  System is pegged almost 100% all the time, so I can't really use the pc.

    Reinstalling the operating system is usually not necessary to remove the malware, but if you're convinced that this is necessary (it is sometimes), this guide is a good:

    http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html

    (this assumes that you have the appropriate Windows XP installation CD)

    Of course, you will need to boot from the CD instead of the hard drive. This page explains that:

    http://michaelstevenstech.com/bios_manufacturer.htm

    You also need to install the hardware drivers. I hope that you have them on CD, too. If this is not the case, the web site of the manufacturer of PC should have them.

    Since a clean install wipes EVERYTHING, you should have all your data copied beforehand.

    However when I leave configured BIOS, windows starts normally and works ok for a few days.  So is there really a problem with the hard drive?  This would explain why it won't turn?

    The laptop becomes quite hot enough quickly also, this can be explained by the error of hard disk or is it do? I don't want to buy a new drive hard to make it happen.  Is it POSSIBLE to repair a hard drive or replacement is the only option? This error is certainly correct?

    Hello world

    IM using a MacMini 2012 with 16 GB of RAM and a 500GB HDD stock.

    I don't know what to do. My MacMini gives me error messages all the time say that my HARD disk memory is full - but it isn't.

    I already emptied the trash. I was transferred to GB´s videos on an external HARD drive. Sometimes, the memory is more and what is reduced without having done anything.

    Today I had 1, 76 GB of free memory and wile watching a video the same 'lack of HARD disk space"message.

    The amounts also vary a lot. Yesterday he showed me 210 GB of videos (green) - today after the transfer not 10 GB of videos, it says now that I just left 12 GB and the difference is now on color (yellow) data.

    Can someone help me please...

  • It's a complete hard drive after reinstalling XP Home and all updates are done, why?

    Do a XP Home reinstall on a desktop HP clocked at 1.6 ghz with 1 GB of ram and a 10 GB hard drive (about 9.8 GB usable after format). Booted from the disc, has made a full format of the hard drive, responsible for XP home without any problems, registered with Microsoft online, loaded all updates including SP3. Now, the system shows only about 170 MB of hard disk space. Is it possible that XP Home with updates can use much more space or can I have another problem? I thought that she should only use about 1.5 GB?

    I could indeed take up that much space. But, you have a more serious problem. Your drive is too small... you have lucky, Windows is still stable. Where to install your programs?

    Here are a few comments:

    • Your D: drive is a recovery disk. It is normal that it is full. In fact, delete the drive letter to make it invisible. This will not hinder its functionality.
    • Defragment and run antivirus programs will not release any disk space.
    • Several programs using antivirus is not a good idea. At best they badly slow down the machine. At worst causes conflicts between them.
    • Here are the first two steps you should take:
      -Running Cleanmgr.exe.
      -Set the amount of disk space used by the restoration of the system to 5%.
      (Control Panel / System / System Protection / configuration)

    If you still have a problem, download and run TreeSize: http://www.jam-software.com/treesize_free/.

    I got the SMART HDD virus. I thought that this one has been removed. I can access everything but my admin folder and my Windows Firewall. I tried a system restore but I get an unknown error 0 x 80070005.

    4/11 is also the furthest I can go back when there was an update. Why can't come back all other - can only be hidden by the virus too?

    Hello

    Disabled first happened to scan your system with MSE or another anti-virus program? You have scanned your system with Malware bytes? Before restoration, it is best to make sure that your system is clean. Some viruses will infect the system and also infected restore points, you did.
    Malware bytes: www.malwarebytes.org
    If you are unable to run these is normal mode, then try safe mode by pressing the F8 key for the system to start.
    I hope this helps.

  • Almost complete hard drive

    I use the backup engineering program 9 with an external drive.  I sent by mistake the backup to disk C (local disk).  Now it is almost full, and I need advice on how to get off the backup.

    Thank you.

    Hi Hawkerwalker,

     

     I suggest you to remove the backup that was created on the C: drive and check it out.

    After you remove the backup of your C drive, recreate the backup on external drive.

    Please be specific on what you mean by "far from many errors on the hard drive."  What kind of mistakes? Do you mean the drive read errors? Please quote the error message you get exact, verbatim.

    How many mistakes is "too much"? How many times they do they happen? They occur only when doing certain things or anything?

    If you really get a lot of the drive read errors, the drive is defective and must be replaced.

    But if you're talking about freezing, slow, etc. This is another question entirely, and I wouldn't call it 'errors on the hard drive. The little info you provided the mind, it is difficult to know what this problem is, but one of the things these days plussusceptibles is malware infection. What antivirus do you run (they are far from being just as good, and some of the most popular are among the worst). Do you also run an anti-spyware program? If not, it's * very * likelythat you are infected. I recommend that you download and run the free MalwareBytes AntiMalware to http://www. Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
