If you went shopping for a chair that cost $100. And right next to it the identical chair $40. But the sticker said all 4 legs were broken at one point but now glued together and declared safe… THAT’S SALVAGE…how safe would you feel sitting on it, never mind going down the hwy at 70 mph

David asks…
How do you FIND the Recycler Virus/Worm on your computer?
Ok, so I’ve seen what seems like a million websites about how to “delete” the Recycler. Okay, that’s all very nice but how do I FIND the Recycler?! I’m going to get a new computer soon, so I wanted to mess with this computer so that I can maybe find a new way to actually delete the Recycler. Since I won’t have any risks to WHATEVER happens to this computer. Please help =)
The Expert answers:
The process involves risks of hampering system files. So before execution, make sure that you know what you are doing. First explore your “Folder options”. In “View” tab, make sure to enable “Show hidden files and folders” & disable “Hide extension for known file types” & “Hide protected operating system files”. Now in every drive, you will see a folder named “RECYCLER”. Right-click on it to open & then delete everything inside.

Charles asks…
how can i totally remove system volume information that infected with recycler?
my os is windows server2003 and i had already removed the folder of system volume information but when i reboot my pc, the folder is turning back again and again.
The Expert answers:
‘Volume’ is the hard disk. ‘System Volume Information’ is the information relating to NTFS filesystem. It is the information that makes the filesystem work! Like a reference table telling your hard disk reader where to go to find files.
Deleting this is like deleting the index of a book – how could your computer ever find any files if it didn’t keep a library?

Sharon asks…
why is there a recycler folder and System Volume Information folder on my drive D?
recycler is a recycle bin, right? idk.. i believe that recycler folder should be found on drive c…i think it is a virus.. if i delete the recycler folder, will my pc crash?
for the System Volume Information folder, when i open it, it says, access denied…. hmmm,, but when i scan it on avg, there is nothing wrong with it… pls help.. tnx
The Expert answers:
You are getting confused—these are the hidden folders of the Windows operating system not a virus
please go to My Computer>Tools>Folder Options>View> and put a check mark in front of “Hide Protected Operating System Files(Recommended)” and click OK
now you wont see these hidden folders.
