Don\u2019t use the internet, until you are ready. This way you will keep your PC protected from malware spreading all across your device. Boot your PC to Microsoft\u2019s Safe Mode. Once you enter the Safe Mode, you will see only a limited number of services and programs. Also, is a virus is automatically set to attack the PC once you open it, then Safe Mode will prevent the malware or virus from doing that.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12501\" src=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/safe-mode.png\" alt=\"Safe Mode\" width=\"425\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/safe-mode.png 425w, https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/safe-mode-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/safe-mode-225x124.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The Safe Mode has become quite complicated for the Windows 10 user. Start your Windows 10 by clicking on the Power Button. Don\u2019t click anything else, select the Shift Key and press on Reboot. You will see a full-screen menu appearing on your PC, press on Troubleshooting. Now click on Advanced Options, after that StartUp Settings. Once you are done with these steps, you will see another window; you need to select the Rest option. Wait for a few seconds; you will see a menu now. The menu will have many numbered options, choose the number 4, which is the option for Safe Mode. If you notice that while being in the Safe Mode, your PC is running a lot faster, then this could be a sign, that your PC is infected.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Deleting any temporary file<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In Safe Mode, avoid using the internet. Before running any virus scan, you must first delete all the temporary files. On the search bar, type Disc Cleanup.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12497\" src=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/delete-temporary-files.png\" alt=\"Delete Temporary File\" width=\"425\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/delete-temporary-files.png 425w, https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/delete-temporary-files-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/delete-temporary-files-225x124.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">You can find the Search Bar right in the Start button. Disk Cleanup software tool will appear, press that. Clean all the junk and temporary files which may contain malware and virus. This way, the scanning process will fasten up, you will free up a lot of disc space, and malware and virus will also be deleted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Download Comodo Antivirus scanner<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">If you haven\u2019t downloaded any antivirus yet, then it is time to think about downloading one right away. You can use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comodo.com\/home\/internet-security\/antivirus.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Comodo Antivirus<\/a> to do its job. Let the antivirus run and scan your PC or laptop. It will remove all the infected files and also detect any suspicious virus or malware attack. If you already have an antivirus, then you should think about a better one, which will detect malware and virus of any.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secure.nurd.com\/home\/purchase.php?pid=109&amp;af=16166\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8604\" src=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/complete-antivirus.png\" alt=\"comodo antivirus\" width=\"650\" height=\"83\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">There are two types of antivirus; one is real-time antivirus which keeps running in the background and notifies you right away in case any malware detected. Then we have an on-demand scanner, which you manually operate to scan the PC. There are many on-demand antiviruses which you can download for different programs to be sure that even if one misses out on a few things, the second one catches them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4: Fixing the web browser<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Malware infections are programmed to attack your PC and damage all the Windows system files, as well as, other setting too.

This way, you will get rid of the malware. However, before doing that, always make sure to create a backup for all the files and documents. After creating the backup for your data, you can go ahead and reinstall Windows to start all over.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12500\" src=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/recover-deleted-files.png\" alt=\"Recover Deleted Files\" width=\"425\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/recover-deleted-files.png 425w, https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/recover-deleted-files-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/recover-deleted-files-225x124.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Always make sure that you have an updated version of antivirus system and buy a real-time <a href=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/computer-safety\/best-antivirus-of-2019\/\">antivirus software<\/a> which will alert you about any malicious content or website, warn you before you download a software, does <a href=\"https:\/\/antivirus.comodo.com\/blog\/comodo-news\/computer-virus-removal\/\">virus removal<\/a>, and also notify you if it detects any virus.
