    Everything including user account is hidden i think!
    « on: June 01, 2011, 06:27:02 AM »
    I had a virus on my computer called Windows 7 recovery, which i think i have got rid of now using malwarebytes. However it seem that the virus has hidden all my files and fiolders, including my user account.  i have ran both malawarebytes and superantispyware both clean.

    Now when i load my computer to login it says, the group policy client service failed the logon, Access is denied.

    I can get into it using safe mode however. but wen i login in safemode, all my user settings are gone, all my desktop icons are gone, nothing in the start menu, my quicklauch bar isnt there. IF i search for a program it finds it, but all my settings and everything are gone, (hidden i think)

    I dont think any data has been deleted cause file sizes look the same, and i can still find my user documents.

    I have tried running unhide.exe, wen i run unhide.exe (the cmd box says administrator on it) it comes up with a error saying windows script host - loading your settings failed (access is denied) also all my folders are 'Read only' wen i right click and go to properties on them. i dunno if this makes a difference

    anyone got any ideas?

    Please help
