Solved "Save! On" and similar Extensions act like a phoenix; deleting does nothing

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Then, is everything okay now?

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

Unfortunately, no; the reason I posted that #3 one is because it came up since after the last fix you had me run.

Scan with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

Please re-run Farbar Recovery Scan Tool to give me a fresh look at your system.

• Right-click on
  
  icon and select
  
  Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• Make sure that Addition option is checked.
• Press Scan button and wait.
• The tool will produce two logfiles on your desktop: FRST.txt and Addition.txt.

Please include their content into your next reply.

Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.

Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

​

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

• Right-click on
  
  icon and select
  
  Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• Press the Fix button just once and wait.
• If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
• When finished FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

• Press the
  
  + R on your keyboard at the same time. Type cmd and click OK.
• Type chkdsk C: /R and press Enter
• Restart your PC and let Disk Checker finish its procedure.

Is done

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Did you execute second step?

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

Oops! My bad. My eyes lumped it in with the signature stuff. Just a sec.

"Access denied as you do not have sufficient privileges. You have to invoke this utility running in an elevated mode."

That's weird, is it saying I'm not admin? I only have one profile on the computer. Or does it mean something else?

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Try to run Command Prompt as Administrator.

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

Alright, please explain how?

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Sorry.

To start a command prompt as an administrator

1. Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Accessories.
   
   
2. Right-click Command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
   
   
3. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
   

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

No apologies needed

.... Huh! How strange. Command Prompt isn't in the accessories list, even checking in the subfolders.

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

Well, I did a search for command prompt and clicked open file location. So, I found it, but now right clicking on it has no run as administrator option.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

You can find it in this location

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

Yep, found that right as you posted, actually Running the command now, hold on.

"The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot be run because the volume is in use by another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)"

I'm assuming yes. However I can tell you that every time my computer starts it tries to run it and it always has issues. Not sure the exact nature specifically, but it doesn't like whatever it's seeing. But it always seems to stop scanning after about 18% through part 2, and once in a while it says it successfully defragged but then it always needs to do it again next time.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Type Y and press enter. Then restart your PC and let it finish.

 

[SickOfStubbonSpyware]

Alright, what shall I report to you?

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

Just let it finish.

Then tell me how is your PC behaving now?
