Windows Firewall

<< < (4/6) > >>

Shane:
The windows firewall service looks like it is missing. My repair puts that back, so if it is missing again then something deleted it.

Lets do some quick scans.

Run this rootkit tool

and this one
http://support.kaspersky.com/5350?el=88446

Let me know if they find anything :-)

No Malware found (By both Programs)   :cheesy:
Or wait should i be sad...   :confused:

Shane:
You may have deeper problems.

But there is a way to get it all fixed in one shot without doing a factory reset :-)

Lets do a repair install, this way you can keep all your programs and settings.

And to do that you will need a Windows 7 disk with SP1 already on it, you can grab that here :wink:

Will this Wipe off all the Data on my Hard Drive? (the one where Software is installed)
How much Time will it take?
Thanks alot!

Shane:
Nope. It is basically doing an upgrade to the same version. So all data is in place :-)

Make sure to read the directions. Windows simply gets reinstalled while keeping all your data.

Of course always good to have a backup just in case. :wink:
