I am having some problems after I was infected with the winbutler
virus. Here is a link to the forum where I was given instructions
for removal.

Since it's removal I am unable to find msconfig.exe by typing it in Run.
I am unable to locate helpctr.exe by selecting in from the start menu.
I can open them from the target.

Also I am unable to enter Safe mode using the F8 method on the
start up screen. I get the black start screen and select Safe mode
but it just keeps coming back around and asks me to select again.
I was able to enter Safe mode the F8 method during my discovery
of winbutler then it stopped working.

I am able to enter Safe mode by going to msconfig in the PC health
folder and selecting diagnostic mode.

Should I reformat? I hate to do it with all I have installed and
configured. So far all other programs seems to work fine.

Is there a way to repair and OS? Or can I just live with these
errors?

What do you think of Registry Mechanic?

thank you

Well, I just told them to retrack it. I took it where I had it built.
I haven't retracked for over three years. I had done some
backup on my second drive a month ago.

What do you think of Registry Mechanic?
It seems to have the endorsement of reputable
references unlike many of these scams.

Hi nepal76



Registry Meechanic has gotten some Awards, has a great reputation but frankly said I'm not such a great fan of programs like that one. Windows registry is a highly sensitive element of your OS and any unexpierienced changes on it may lead to a complete reinstall of your system.... without creating any backups before using such tools. Thats what my experience tells me over more than 15 years...

Have a great day and thx for your response about taking your computer to the shop

OK, thanks. I'll stay away from any registry software.
