    How can I remove this virus remnant?

    I was also going to suggest Autoruns.

    Check to make sure it isn't attaching itself to explorer. It should be the 3rd thing listed in Autoruns, the listing for the Shell. It should just be Explorer.exe. If it is anything else, that might be your problem.

    Cannot run some Apps in Win 10 - Possible Virus.


    Hi.

    Apps I cannot run:
    Control Panel
    File Explorer
    One Drive

    Apps I can Run:
    Everything Else including:
    Cortana
    All Browsers(Chrome, Edge),
    Task manager
    Settings

    Ran Malwarebyte did not get errors.
    Did a conversion yesterday from 8.1 to Win10. Ran OK. All Apps were tested successfully.
    Unfortunately, I did not backup my system after conversion yesterday.
    When I launch, I get the hour glass and arrow but nothing happens.
    I cannot download any new Virus scan apps since File Explorer is unresponsive.

    Must be a virus on my Laptop.

    (Are there any freeware Virus scans I can run from my window)?


    Can anybody give me suggestions?
    Would Microsoft allow me to Download Win 10 again?
    Note: Before this problems, I did go to a site to watch a free NBA basketball game. It's possible this site may have attributed the virus.

    Tom.
