Out of nowhere SMART scan popped up and began popping up messages. I use my PC mainly for work and wasn't going anywhere I shouldn't. I removed SMART scan but, I noticed that all my folders and files are missing on the Desktop. They must be re-written and placed somewhere.

Need some help. That [bleep] program literally rewrote every single .txt, .doc, .jpg and everything else.

Hi there lets recover the files and folders first, then see what else you have

• Download RogueKiller and save it on your desktop.
• Quit all programs
• Start RogueKiller.exe.
• Wait until Prescan has finished ...
• Click on Scan

• Wait for the end of the scan.
• The report has been created on the desktop.
• Click on the Delete button.

• The report has been created on the desktop.

• Next click on the ShortcutsFix
  
• The report has been created on the desktop.

Please post: All RKreport.txt text files located on your desktop.

THEN

Download OTL to your Desktop

• Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
• Select All Users
• Under the Custom Scan box paste this in
  netsvcs
  %SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
  /md5start
  consrv.dll
  explorer.exe
  winlogon.exe
  Userinit.exe
  svchost.exe
  /md5stop
  C:\Windows\assembly\tmp\U\*.* /s
  %Temp%\smtmp\1\*.*
  %Temp%\smtmp\2\*.*
  %Temp%\smtmp\3\*.*
  %Temp%\smtmp\4\*.*
  CREATERESTOREPOINT
• Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
  
• When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
• Post both logs

FINALLY

Download aswMBR.exe ( 4.8mb ) to your desktop.
Double click the aswMBR.exe to run it Click the "Scan" button to start scan



On completion of the scan click save log, save it to your desktop and post in your next reply

Aye - RogueKiller will reset the atributes and with OTL and aswMBR I will be able to see what is left

[acbingham]

RogueKiller link is in a French website. It is safe?

[Essexboy]

Absolutely - I would not use it otherwise
