    Hi srtony1946, :)

    Your computer is now clean.

    • Please open a new Notepad file.
    • Copy and paste the following into Notepad:
    Quote

    REGEDIT4

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL]
    "CheckedValue"="1"

    • Save this as fix.reg, save it to your desktop.
    • Double click fix.reg to run it.
    • Select yes to the registry merge prompt.
    ======

    Updating System Restore
    Now to get you off to a good start we will clean your restore points so that all the bad stuff is gone for good. Then if you need to restore at some stage you will be clean. There are several ways to reset your restore points, but this is my method:
    • Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > System Restore.
    • On the dialogue box that appears select Create a Restore Point
    • Click NEXT
    • Enter a name e.g. Clean
    • Click CREATE.
    You now have a clean restore point.

    To get rid of the bad ones:
    • Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > Disk Cleanup.
    • In the Drop down box that appears select your main drive e.g. C
    • Click OK
    • The System will do a calculation of temporary/old files, and then display a dialogue box.
    • Select the More Options Tab.
    • At the bottom will be a System Restore box with a CLEANUP button click this
    • Accept the Warning and select OK again, the program will close and you are done.
    ======

    Removing the tools
    Now, to remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created, please do the following:

    Download OTC.exe by OldTimer:
    • Save it to your Desktop.
    • Double click OTC.exe.
    • Click the CleanUp! button.
    • If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
    • The tool will delete itself once it finishes.
      Note: If any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.
    ========

    Thanks for choosing Computerhope!

    Happy Internet browsing!  :)

      Not sure if this worked properly, I am running windows 7 and your restore info does work with the way you are telling me. But thank you for the help I really appreciate it.
