Let me know if problems resolve after this...

Download Windows Repair (all in one) from this site

Install the program then run it.

Go to Step 2 and allow it to run CheckDisk by clicking on Do It button:

Once that is done then go to Step 3 and allow it to run System File Check by clicking on Do It button:

Go to Step 4 and under "System Restore" click on Create button:

Go to Start Repairs tab and click Start button.

Please ensure that ONLY items seen in the image below are ticked as indicated (they're all checked by default):

Click on box next to the Restart System when Finished. Then click on Start.

Let's check for remnants then we'll finish up...

ESET Online Scan

Please run a free online scan with the ESET Online Scanner

• Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use
• Click Start
• When asked, allow the ActiveX control to install, or it will ask to download an installer. Please do so an install it.
• Click Start or wait for the scanner to load.
• Make sure that the options Remove found threats and the option Scan unwanted applications are checked.
• Click Scan (This scan can take several hours, so please be patient)
• Once the scan is completed, there are a couple of things to keep in mind:
• 1. If NO threats were found, allow the scanner to Uninstall on close and then close the Window.
• 2. If threats WERE detected, click on List of Threats Found, Export to Text File...save it as ESET-Scan-Log.txt. Click the back button/link, put a checkmark to Uninstall Application on Close and then close the window.
• Open the logfile from wherever you saved it
• Copy and paste the contents in your next reply.

Any more issues?

We need to know any other issues that are plaguing your computer. Kindly give a summary so we know how to continue from here.

Many of the things to note for us would be:

• Slow computer
• Error messages
• Fake antivirus alerts or the icon in the system tray
• svchost.exe running at 100%
• System crashes or blue screen of death

Note: Absence of issues does not mean that you're protected in the future.
