So i decided to use TFC to clean up my computer and then when i did it said "windows is encountering a critical error and will shut down in 1 minute"

Then after i sign back on i see these desktop.ini in every folder i go into. This is what was inside desktop.ini:

[.ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21779
InfoTip=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-12688
IconResource=%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-113
IconFile=%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll
IconIndex=-236

There were many different stuff it said inside but mostly stuff along the same lines as that.

What is wrong?

Nothing. You are just seeing hidden files and folders.

Do as much of

http://www.geekstogo...uide-t2852.html

as you can. If a step won't work, skip to the next one. Copy and paste your gmer, mbam, otl, & extras logs into a reply. Do not attach them.

If you lose internet access after running MBAM or if you are not able to get to the downloads:

In IE, Tools, Internet Options, Connections, LAN Settings, then uncheck all boxes and OK. Close IE and restart IE.

In FireFox, Tools, Options, Advanced, Settings, check No Proxy then OK. Close Firefox and restart Firefox.

In Chrome, Wrench, Options, Under the Hood, Change Proxy Settings, uncheck all boxes, OK.

why did the hidden files go all over the place after I did TFC and why does an error come up and say windows is encountering a critical error and will shut down in 1 minute? I really liked using TFC but now this happens everytime. I dont have a virus i know that.
