IMPORTANT - Do not run ComboFix!
« on: January 24, 2010, 07:02:17 PM »
If you have recently ran ComboFix and it deleted everything from your desktop post a link here to your topic so I can help you get your computer back to normal. Or start a new topic and post the contents of the C:\QooBox\ComboFix-quarantined-files.txt file. Please attach it as it will be huge.

If you have an active topic then also add the C:\QooBox\ComboFix-quarantined-files.txt to it as well as posting a link to the topic here.

Please only post in this topic if your computer was effected by this ComboFix bug. Thanks.

EF. I think we only had two that had files removed. I've pm'd all my OP's that had to run CF or script not to do anything until they get the all clear.
Windows 8 and Windows 10 dual boot with two SSD's

If they were not effected by running CF then just carry on. But be sure to have them delete CF if they have downloaded it.
