Windows 10: Virus still being detected after manual deletion of offensive files

I checked the details of scan to see which file the viruses were being detected from, and I manually deleted the file and emptied the recycling bin. I've restarted my computer twice and Windows defender is still telling me the virus is in this file i've already deleted.


When I choose to remove the virus, it results in Failure, because of course the file doesn't exist anymore. I've also cleared the threat history several times to no avail.

MBAR cannot detect HPReyos


Hi

I used UnHackMe with Full and Rootkit scan active and it removed every files the virus has infected. It deleted FireFox but that's fine for me

Thank you for the suggestions simrick, I will use these steps if I encounter another virus in my computer.

 

Reboot Virus Deletion?

Alright, so I think I have a virus that my computer isn't detecting. None of my processes seem suspiscious, but just to be safe, I'd like to re-install Vista. I have an iMac. I use a program called Boot Camp to partion the HDD so I can install/uninstall Vista on the alternate partion. If I delete the Vista partion, and reinstall Vista, will everything be deleted, including the virus? By the way, I think it could be the csrss.exe virus thing. Not really asking help to remove it, just if the above would work. Thanks *Smile

The email indicates that you have an FVD Media Inc extension installed. The email belongs to the developer.

Bing can be removed - it's not suspicious.

Type aboutreferences#search in the address bar. Make sure that bing is non-default then in the search engine list highlight bing and remove.



I would still suggest clean installing firefox and that means removing leftovers after uninstall.
