    This has been a good learning exercise in how to handle infections, both for myself as well as for you.
    I have been fortunate in having visited your delightful country.

    Do you have any backups @Vikdal? It is still time to do it, if you don't have any. And prepare your software licence for reinstall, if you decide to do clean install.

    It is your call, but probably quickest solution (as Dencal mentioned..)

    I do have Backups. They are a bit old, but they will do the deal. Thanks again

    Just to remind you, it would be wise to wipe partition clean before install.

    I know it doesn't help now, but in the future you may wish to consider making a system image, using either Macrium Reflect Free or Windows Ten built in image maker. This will save you a lot of time & frustration should something like this happen in the future.

    Macrium Reflect Free | Macrium Software

    Keep the image on an external HDD/SSD/FD and have it hooked up only when making images for storage. Keep several past older images on the drive in case you inadvertently make an image containing malware. (I keep the last 5 on file in addition to the current one).

    Some types of malware nowadays will seek out any backup image files & corrupt them. Hence the reason for keeping them on a drive that is not always hooked up to the computer.

    You made a great effort, but this is probably a wise decision. *Wink

    Macrium images in the future will help alleviate this situation, as Borg suggests.

    Torrenting should be discontinued. Everything from a torrent is suspect and likely a problem. Unless you are a star coder and can reverse-engineer everything you torrent for malware, you should just stay away.

    Good luck! *Smile
