No. Files can be deleted accurately without reformatting.
Reformatting is for completely deleting the entire drive's contents and re-establishing the file structure. This is usually used to repair a damaged file structure, or permanently erase all contents of the disk. (Although methods of undoing or recovering still exist.)
right-click the file icon and click delete in the context menu
No. There is no problem in deleting zip files. They are just left behind after file downloads. .zip files are compressed archives, containing 1 or more files. Deleting a .zip file will not harm your computer, as they are not system files. If you delete a .zip file, all you will lose is the files contained within. If you have already extracted the files, or if you no longer need them, they are perfectly safe to delete.
Yes.
Deleting a virus from an infected file.
First, try to locate the root file of the worm. The root file is the carrier file of the virus. Try deleting it first. After deleting it, use an effective antivirus to delete threats on a particular drive. Run a full scan (if on PC) or Custom or USB scan (if on USB or CD drives). After Scanning, delete files with threats. Try buck-up-ing a copy of your safe USB files on PC. Then try reformatting your drive (If using USB).
If you mean the .torrent files, then they can be deleted by deleting your internet cache or simply deleting them IF you downloaded them (I like to Open them so they save to my internet cache) Or if you mean the files you downloaded, you can open/watch/listen to it and then you can easily delete it from utorrent by deleting both files (Torrent + the files (cant remember exact)).
100% yes. However, when you put your files back on your computer, you may reinfect yourself!
