Hello,

I noticed that this forum seems to have very willing and helpful users so I thought I'd ask.

Sorry for my previous thread if I sounded selfish/greedy, definitely wasn't my intention :).

Someone had a similar problem and it seems the solution given by Ambucias was wonderful and worked for me to so thankyou very much!

The previous thread: https://ccm.net/forum/affich-613761-a-trojan-virus-wiped-my-computer-out

The problem for me is you know when you typically press the start icon you can see "My Computer", "My documents", "Control panel" etc. well I have absolutely nothing there :S. Is it possible to get it back? I tried searching for control panel and stuff but it is not found :(.

I would be very gratful if anyone would be able to help me out.

Thankyou in advance for your time! I will be super grateful regardless if its possible because my main problem is already solved :).

IMPORTANT:

Go to run and type

%temp% and click ok

If you find a folder called smtmp ,copy it to a safe location.

If you do not find it,check here

C:/windows/temp

If you still do not find it,leave it




Please boot into safemode with networking

Download this

https://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr

Save it on desktop,run it ,a command prompt window will pop up ,

after that you will get two logs

dds.txt
attach.txt

Please upload the dds.txt file to

https://authentification.site

and paste the link here


Download

https://support.kaspersky.com/downloads/utils/tdsskiller.exe

Cure the infections

Go to C drive,there should be a TDSSkiller log file,open it and post the contents here

Let me know after this

My mistake I haven't been home much last few days, sorry for my late'ness.

Also thanks for the detailed response! and heres the files:

Archive copy of both the files: http://speedy.sh/NesjD/DDS.Attach-Files.rar

Also, I could not find the smtmp folder.

Here is the TDSSkiller log files: http://speedy.sh/9QxeW/TDSSKiller-files.rar

There were 3 files there. Two of them looked very similar and different, so I uploaded all 3 and archived.

Once again, thanks in advance !

Thanks so much! The first part worked perfectly my files are all back.

only the second part on restoring the start menu didn't work.


c:\program data/microsoft/windows/start menu - I found this but sadly my previous versions are all when I still had the virus.

C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

C:\Users\Public\Desktop


^ Those two I cannot find. Well I can't find the users folder at all :S.

I guess that you followed the steps.You got your MBAM scan clean right?

//c:\program data/microsoft/windows/start menu - I found this but sadly my previous versions are all when I still had the virus. //

that doesnt matter,if your startmenu looks empty,then go ahead and restore to a previous version

Make sure to remove SYSTEM FIX or SYSTEM restore OR DATA recovery rogue icon or folder after you restore them


//Those two I cannot find. Well I can't find the users folder at all :S.//


https://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/unhide.exe


Just launch it and wait for it to complete unhiding files.Make sure you get back your users folder and retry them


Let me know after that
