Has anyone used microsoft OneLive.com? It has a free service to scan your pc
for virus and/or correct corrupted registry files.
I"ve been having problem doing system restore. My pc might be virus
infected already. Currently, I don't have virus scan installed.
I done everything as suggested by the generous posters here. From taking
ownership of all the files and folders of the corrupted administrator profile
and then copying it to another administrator profile. All this done on safe
mode.
I still can't log in on normal mode, it always log me in in the system
default profile, for the mean time its' building up enormous temp user
folders in the system.
Kindly enlighten me on this onelive.care.
Thanks ,
