  1. Need help deleting a file out of system32.


    Hello,For the record, I understand that messing around in system32 is generally a bad idea. What happened here is I installed a program that came with a driver to allow my PC and Nintendo Switch to communicate with each other for a project. That ended up going nowhere so I uninstalled the program but the driver that lets the two talk to each other remains. I'm pretty sure "nintendo_switch_apx_mode_client" is not original to a clean Windows 11 install, so surely it is safe to remove? I tried removing it but I don't have permission from SYSTEM. How can I remove this driver?Thank you.

    :)

  2. XP Help! System32

    hey guys,
    i have windows xp professional sp2 and my trend micro is telling me that one of the files in it is corrupt. I tried to quarantine it but that didn't work and even tried to delete it but that didn't work, because it said that it was being used by a user

    -the name of the file is
    geBtUMCt.dll

    firstly im wondering if this is a neccessary system32 file and if it is smart to delete it or not....

    secondly how am i suppose to get rid of the generic trojan on it, or delete it if i can


    - thanx for all the help

    C:\Windows\System32\kbiwkmwsxvowut.dll (Rootkit.TDSS) -> Delete on reboot.

    This basicly tells you where the bad files are so what i would now do.

    Make sure system restore is turned of because this keeps copys of dodgy files and if you dont turn it of they will keep coming back.

    then manulay goto c:\system32 and manulay find the files in that list and delete them one by one (yes it takes time but better than format of you cant be bothered)

    after you have deleted the files in the list restart and run the scan again untill you have fully removed the files.

    another usefull scanner i use is the norton online scan its free and does a very good job of findind where dodgy files hide, it willl also give you a list at the end with any viruses or bad files that need to be removed. follow the list and manuly delete.
