In order to boot into Safe Mode, restart your computer. Just before the Windows loading screen comes up, press the F8 key. A menu will come up, choose the first one that says "Safe Mode". Let it boot up completely, so we can continue with the process.
Set up Software and ScanOnce in safe mode, insert your removable media and install Malwarebytes, and update it if possible. Then continue and run a Full Scan, which can take a few hours. After the scan is complete, there will be an option to remove the detected malware. Click Remove Selected, and run a second scan to be safe. The second scan generally shows up less malware, if any. Check for Other ErrorsThe malware on your system may have corrupted your hard drive. In order to check for this, we will use the Chkdsk, or Check Disk utility that is built into Windows. There are two ways to do this. The easiest way is to go to My Computer, and then select your main hard drive (usually C: ). Right click the hard drive and choose Properties. At the top, select the "Tools" tab, and click "Check Now" under Error Checking. Check both the boxes in the window that pops up, and click Start. It will say that the scan is scheduled to be run when the computer is restarted, and that is correct. The Check Disk utility needs the hard drive to be "locked" before scanning, so it will wait until the system is restarted to run the scan.The more complicated method uses the Command Prompt. Go to your Start Menu and search for "cmd". Right click the "cmd" application and select "Run as Admistrator". When the window comes up, type "chkdsk \F", and then press enter. As with the previous method, it will say that the scan is scheduled to be run when the computer is restarted, and that is correct. The Check Disk utility needs the hard drive to be "locked" before scanning, so it will wait until the system is restarted to run the scan.
