  2. MICROSOFT SAFETY SCANNER RESULT

    I ran the Microsoft Safety Scanner after downloading the latest version, and it found 10 infected files. When I checked the resulting action by Microsoft, the response was "Misleading Win32/chekuem partially removed." Should it have been totally removed???
    Thanks!

  3. MS Safety Scanner & Windows Defender not removing Virus: Win32/Ramnit.A

    Point 1:

    Microsoft Safety Scanner is not supported on Windows 10.

    Point 2:

    You should not uninstall your current antivirus if your system is infected.

    Scan your system with one or more scanners mentioned here (not MSS, of course):

    Redirecting

    Report back with results. We got some more work to do then.
