Basically, I downloaded a virus a few days ago, and I managed

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

This isn't for Apple haha
(Important note that I forgot: this is Windows 10, not a Mac)

>trusting antivirus
Reformat and re install Windows.

>>55996608
And, I have tried shutting it down, if that's what you're asking.

>>55996677
That's not an option. It'll be impossible for me to go through 600 gigabytes of data, looking for what to backup. I just don't have that time.

>>55996703
The other option is waiting 5 minutes for your important windows to pop up.

This is not your personal tech support.

>>55996703
Just use one of your existing backups

>>55996767
You must be retarded. I was looking for help, not demanding for it. And in case you haven't noticed, this is the technology section of 4chan.

>this is the technology section of 4chan
Yes. But retardation is hardly technology.

>I was looking for help, not demanding for it
What's the difference? It doesn't belong here. Read the sticky.

why would you download a virus?

>>55996914
By clicking the wrong link.

>>55996928
Sometimes the wrong link will click itself too, those are the bad days.

>>55996590
Use rkill, adwcleaner and JRT, just to be safe.
