[QUOTE="CycloneTutorials, post: 27021, member: 563"] Thank you Jack for the reply. It's not infected with malware, I scanned it with MalwareBytes, Emsisoft 6, before the day explorer.exe got corrupted. No, explorer.exe is not listed, when I type explorer.exe in Task Manager, it says "explorer.exe is not a valid win32 application". 1. Yes I did. I got the same results. 2.A. Yes, I did. It scanned fine. It said me to reboot to complete. But I still got the same error. I went to Regedit/winlogon but there is not file like SFCDisable Key. C. Tried sfc in offline it said "The arguments passed to sfc are invalid. The offline windows directory specified points to the online system." 3. Sorry, I can't open Event Viewer because I can't see the task bar, when I go to Task Manager and type control.exe it said its not a valid win32 application. Any idea how to open using CMD? 4. Sorry Jack, sigverif is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. 5. OTL: I attached the file OTL.txt and Extras.txt. The rest is up toa you. Thanks for the reply, again. [/QUOTE]
