    Have I been hit by a virus?


    Have I been hit by a virus.? My Toshiba pc will not boot “Boot failure: A proper digital signature was not found. One of the files on the selected boot device was rejected by the Secure Boot feature”. The following day I had 3 unsuccessful attempts to access my Microsoft account followed by 2 successful logins. I have changed my Microsoft password. What else do I need to do to recover my PC and to my accounts? Can they gain access to anything else on my PC?My pc normally boots from ssd but I also have a 2nd hard drive with windows on too. If I change to boot from this instead, I get the same

  2. Clean the Virus

    Hi,

    Virus infection usually happens on a computer when it is exposed to an infected website or removable devices. For us to help you clean the malware on your device, we would need you to answer the following questions:

    • Which build and version of Windows are you using?
    • Did you encounter any error messages related to having a virus infection on your device?
    • What are the troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest running any available antivirus software on your PC. It would be very helpful to us if you could also provide the result of the antivirus scan process.

    Looking forward to your response.

    If it is not listed in the Control Panel, or it can't be removed there, move on to step 2. You might be able to skip the step with HitmanPro. (30 day free trial if needed)
