There are plenty of rescue disks offered for free by AV vendors, the most used and effective are Kaspersky, Bitdefender, DrWeb and Avira, that you can use to clean up a pc.
But in case of deep infection or heavy locked system i would suggest to not use any software if not under the advices of an expert in malware removal or following a specific guide. Always ask our expert malware removal members!

Only is very rare situations that I have needed to use them cleaning up my custom systems. If system would not boot into Safe Mode for example. Most modern infections don't mess with Safe Mode.

If I can get into Safe Mode then I can easily remove most infections, if a system is severely infected I always backup user files and reinstall Windows it is much faster and cost the customers less money. Also the only sure way to make sure all traces are gone.

Enjoy!!

It depends, should I ran out of tricks up my sleeve, then I'll use it. But it's not bad having one around in case the need arises.

I have a USB with Kaspersky Rescue Disk. Easy to use and will definitely help when dealing with really infected machines.
