Download, Revo Uninstaller, Go to, >  then click on this link   Download@MajorGeeks

Start Revo, > when it opens, > on the top menu, > click view, click Details,  run full screen, see image.

 

Please take a screenshot.   You will have a very long list, so scroll up and take another screenshot.   You may have to scroll up again and take a third shot.   I need to see all the programs you have installed.

Should I do a full scan? (Takes long) That's how those bugs were last found? Or should I do a regular scan?

Gday.

Quick scan was OK this time.

 

Please do the Revo screenshots again, ensuring you show the Details view., as in the image in reply #406.  We need the details to know versions/dates and the vender installing the program.

 

Thanks.  

[Lexy610]

Oh ok .. my apologies .. give me about 5 min .. thanks

Thanks, exactly what we needed.   Please look through the list and make a note of any programs you no longer use or need.

 

We need to clean out System Restore Points as they are contaminated. 

Please follow the instruction, > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555367

[Lexy610]

Done .. what should I do next?

[iammykyl]

Good.

Please now create a manual restore point, name it "Clean Up"

 

You have Speccy installed, please run it and post the URL from the results address bar window.

 

Have you made a list of the programs you no longer use or need?

[Lexy610]

Just realized the disc cleanup isnt done yet ... once I minimized my browser I noticed it is still cleaning ..... have a small window "disc cleanup" it says "the disc utility is cleaning up unnecessary files on your machine" ... seems to be taking a really long time/ is that normal?

 

Should I wait or should I continue and create the new restore point and run speccy?

 

yes I have a list of programs but some I am unsure of what they are so I don't want to uninstall something important ...

 

I also didnt realize that I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed but cant find it in my "all programs" list ...

Please let the disk clean up run until finished and yes, it could take a long time.

 

Perform the system restore when Clean up has finished then the Speccy run. 

 

short cuts/icons like Photoshop CS2 are probable left over bits which we will clean up as we go. 

[Lexy610]

Hi ... the cleanup finally finished this morning.

 

I created a new restore point and named it "cleanup".

 

I ran Piriform Speccy and it needed to update so I updated it ... however I don't see an address bar??

 

 

 

 

Also Revo is still open .. do I close it??

 

And also noticed my sound isn't working, says no sound device ...
