I got a fake virus checker that changed a lot of my system settings. First I saw a lot of messages prompting that my HD is not readable and then a program pops up checking the disk. I stopped it in the middle then the messagestated that hardware failure, I can choose cancel or restart. I restarted and the system becomes unrecognizable. Eventually I safe booted the system and deleted the applications. The aftermath are:
1. many of my folders and files disappeared. It still shows the size when getting the properties of the folders. I eventually got most of them back byunlocking the folders and linked to the files in the folders from the shortcuts I had before. It turns out that the program set the files invisible if I go to the folders from shortcut, I can select them and make them not hide again.
2. The desktop, default folder location was changed to TEMP inside Documents and Settings. Instead of moving files around, I'd like to move the default folder location to my original one.
How can I do that?
Thanks for the help,
