So, my PC got ransomware. I realized it while I was copying a new version of windows when one of my friends a couple of hours ago decided to delete system32 as a joke and restore everything from recycling bin.

I am now concerned of my other systems as the ransomware which is a cracked file is gonna work on the other machines

#

I tried resetting my PC, and it wouldnt let me

#

I didn't do anything on this system afaik, besides install Ubuntu on it a while ago then proceeding to uninstall it

deleting a core of windows is not a joke..

wow. use on another computer the windows installation tool. (or something like that and download it form the OFFICIAL microsoft website) And then install windows on a usb stick with the tool. then on the infected computer just boot into the new windows and try to delete the old windows installation or something like that

I would take the drive off the computer and do the wipe on the storage externally via vm or something

#

then install windows
