How To Clean Your Computer Of Viruses, Malware, Spyware and Adware During The 2020 Covid-19 Coronavirus Pandemic.

 Many of us can be suffering with our computers failing to work properly due to infections. I myself have been a computer technician for over 18 years. People one, don't have the money to take their computers to the computer service center to have it cleaned. Most of us are out of work and just can't afford the $100 to $300 or more to clean a system. Plus most business are not open or are doing curbside service, which is still expensive.
 Well you can clean your computer of various infections. In fact what you will find is that these computer service centers are using various programs off the internet to clean your computer. What some do is take the various programs and have them run as batch files and call the program some fancy name to get you to shell out lots of money.
 Cleaning your computer depends on the fact whether you can boot up your computer or not. If it will boot up and log into the desktop, I recommend clearing the history in all of your web browsers. These can be internet explorer, chrome, edge and Firefox. These are the common web browsers that most people use. If you are nit sure how to do this, do some searching on youtube and you will find videos on how to do this.
 After clearing the web browsers, you will need to download a few different free programs. Download Free Malwarebytes, ADW Cleaner, Roguekiller and JRT. JRT or Junkware Removal Tool is a little outdated, but still works very well. Other free programs that work very well are TDSS Killer and Super Antispyware. After installing these programs, make sure they are updated.
 The next step is to enter the safemode with networking. This way you can run the programs with nothing interfering with them, such as an antivirus program. In windows 10, you can go to msconfig or system configuration and check-mark safemode with networking, then click apply and okay.
 IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW YOUR PASSWORD TO LOG INTO WINDOWS AND NOT YOUR PIN NUMBER. A PIN NUMBER DOES NOT WORK IN THE SAFEMODE. IT HAS TO BE YOUR PASSWORD.
If you are not sure about your password, you can run the programs in the normal mode, but disable your antivirus program. You can also search youtube for how to enter the safemode in windows 10. You can enter the troubleshooting mode and select to start in the safemode with networking. I would definitely recommend to watch videos on youtube on how to proceed with this.
 Once everything has been run, reboot the computer and see how it runs. I would make sure that windows 10 is up to date. You can also clean the temp files  with a program called cleaner, which is free on the internet. If problems are still happening, then I would save all data and run the Reset In Recovery. Be aware that this will wipe out windows 10, reinstall it and you will have to reinstall all programs and printers etc....
 My Best Advise Is To Always Make A Back Up Of Your System To An External Hard Drive Using The Back Up Program In The Control Panel. This way if your system is really corrupted, you could reinstall windows 10 and run the backup to recover the system to before the infection occurred. You can always go to my website and purchase an external hard drive or antivirus software. Click Here For Bigfoot PC.
