I am working on my friends laptop trying to fix it, make it faster, clear viruses and what not but I ran into a few problems i've never seen before. First of all I cant log onto the main account it says user profile not found so I have to run it in safemode, second when I try to install avast I get an error saying it cant run it. What I noticed for some reason her " \ " key turned into the pic related. So I noticed that all of the \'s in the laptop is different so it makes alot of programs not run. How can I change the \ key back to normal?
Bump, I system restored and it can't start up now idk why I'm letting it start up repair and it's taking a long ass time
the os has switched to japanese. you've removed too much of the os installation. only way to fix is to reinstall the os.

theres too many files missing. you need to reinstall. there is no other option.

If I reinstall the os will it get rid of all the files? I tried system restore and it just fails everytime for some reason I can't start it up without it telling me to repair then it says it can't repair

Install windows to thumb drive, boot from that, and see if you can access files on the main drive?
