Most computer viruses can be removed using special programs. In some cases, it is necessary to use special utilities that allow you to work without an operating system.
Necessary
- - Antivirus software;
- - Dr. Web LiveUSB.
Instructions
Step 1
To get started, open the menu of the installed antivirus software and run a full scan of all local drives. This method takes a lot of time, but practice shows that it allows you to get rid of most Trojan viruses. Confirm the deletion of the found virus files. Reboot your computer.
Step 2
If you cannot access the operating system due to the presence of a certain virus, then use additional utilities. Using another computer, go to https://www.freedrweb.com/liveusb. Download the program, connect a USB drive to this computer and run the liveusb utility. Please note that all information will be deleted from the selected UBS drive. Take care of its safety in advance. Create a bootable USB flash drive using the liveusb program.
Step 3
Restart your computer and hold down the F8 key. When the desired menu appears, select the USB-HDD item and press the Enter key. In the new window, specify the Dr. Web USB (Normal mode) parameter and wait for the miniature operating system to start.
Step 4
Start the computer scanning program by clicking on the corresponding shortcut. Select "Full" scan mode and specify the required local drives. It is better to check only the system partition of the disk first. This will save time. Sometimes this approach allows you to access the Windows operating system. All other operations are best performed in it.
Step 5
If you know the type of Trojan virus and the names of the files to be removed, then use the explorer built into the liveusb package. Delete the virus files and restart your computer normally.
