Post event logs, in EVT format.
Start > Run > eventvwr.msc I'm interested in Application and System logs. Right-click them and select "Save log files as..." Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Personally, I wouldn't bother with disinfection, especially on a laptop that did not belong to me. Just reformat the whole thing and maybe performance would even improve.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
C:\Windows\explorer.exe is a required system file. If THAT is infected then you will, at the LEAST, have to extract a fresh copy from your Windows CD.
I still say reformatting is the best option ![]() This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
My desktop Recycle Bin has disappeared - why, and how do I get it back? - Ask Leo!

Reformat! Reformat!
![]() I was speaking idiomatically. |
None, Necro, given the depths of your problem. I strongly suggest you backup, reformat your system, and be more careful next time.

Take ownership of the folder in question, and give yourself full control over it. You must be an Administrator to do this.
Right-click on the folder, click Properties, and go to the Securities tab. Click Add, and in the next dialog box, click Advanced. Another box opens, and you click "Find Now". Look for your account information, then click Ok twice. Tick the box in the Allow column for "Full control". Next, click Advanced, navigate to the "Owner" tab, and highlight your account under the "Change owner to:" section. Tick the box that says "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" and dismiss all dialogs with Ok. You should now be able to delete things in the folder at your leisure. Don't go overboard. tl;dr If your problem is not with "System Volume Information", read the above sections, you bum. If the problem occurs with your System Volume Information folder, the easiest way to go about it is to disable System Restore, reboot, re-enable it, then reboot. FELIPE NO |
