[Solved] Help! Every path gone! - mclarenclarkson - 10-18-2014
Hi guys,
I really am in serious trouble. I recently downloaded wintousb and kaspersky picked it up as a virus and now when I get back to my PC (after kaspersky has apparently fixed it) no programs open! I just get an error saying this program no longer exists! I can't switch off my PC so I'm going to go and hard reboot it in a minute. What should I do? I have some stuff on here that I really do not want to re-download i.e. AutoCad which is over 60GB of programs.
Edit: I cannot delete any files, it just asks me for admin permission then when granted does nothing. I also cannot go to any other webpage other than the two that are open. Sound is also gone.
Any advice is appreciated,
Dan.

Can you open Task manager?

I just came back into the room to find my PC had rebooted after I told Kaspersky to reboot and fix the virus over 1 Hour ago. Luckily everything now works and it seems like kaspersky has solved the issue but I had removed wintousb and I will do a full scan overnight. Never again will I install it!
I advise nobody to install this program unless they are wanting a lovely trojan.
Thanks for the help,
Dan.
