  1. Virus destroyed W10 how to reinstall


    Hi guys, a particularly nasty virus has beaten bitdefender and left me with a corrupted W10. I have virtually no control over the OS. How can I clean the machine entirely and start from scratch. As I bought the laptop online I don’t have the OS software anymore either the virus has seen to that. I am at wits end. Please help.

    :)

  3. Can VIRUS destroy the Hard disk physically

    Hi,

    Viruses exploit the disk structures that your computer uses to start up by replacing, redirecting, or corrupting the code and data that start the operating system. It can also destroy the firmware of your hard disk. Virus infection can never destroy your
    disk physically.

    To address your concern about a virus infected HDD, we suggest that you contact your
    Original Equipment Manufacturer of your hard disk. Inform them about the issue and the troubleshooting
    steps that you've performed. They can help you to install the latest firmware on your HDD and it may synchronize it on your device's motherboard. The link provided includes information about
    Original Equipment Manufacturers and how to find out an
    OEM
    ’s contact information.

    If you have other concerns, don't hesitate to reply on this thread.
