Hi

Run malwarebytes and remove infection.Make sure system is clean

If you have lost your startmenu and desktop icons

you need to unhide files first

run this command as a administrator

Attrib %systemdrive%\*.* /s /d -h

then

Navigate to %temp%\smtmp folder,you should find your startmenu ,taskbar and desktop icons

if u dont find smtmp folder just restore the icons using recuva (you need to search for lnk file types)
